The Rowan County United Way has set this year’s campaign goal at $1.65 million.

That’s slightly less than last year’s goal, but more than the 2009 campaign raised.

Last year’s campaign goal was $1.7 million and the effort raised $1.5 million.

It will take the whole community to reach this year’s goal, said Jackie Harris, Rowan United Way’s campaign and marketing director.

Harris said although organizers believe $1.65 million is an attainable goal, the United Way needs to raise what she called a “stretch goal” of $1.7 million in order to maintain services.

“We have to raise $1.7 million in order to keep the agencies where they are currently,” Harris said.

If this year’s campaign goal is not met, she said, “it may mean our allocation to them will be less.”

When last year’s campaign came up short of the goal, the United Way dipped into its reserves to make up the difference and avoid making cuts to agencies.

“We’re just not in the position to do that this year,” Harris said.

This year’s campaign has a new structure. Instead of a campaign chairperson, the

agency formed a campaign cabinet.

This committee is made up of people who have worked on past campaigns and some who will work on the campaign for the first time.

“We have put together a strong team that will work together to achieve the campaign goal,” Harris said.

The cabinet came up with some strategies to make the campaign successful.

Harris said if there’s a company in the county that hasn’t been a part of the campaign in the past, then the cabinet will work to educate the company about how they can join.

Also, if a company is having difficulty reaching its individual goal, the cabinet will be there to help with a strategy to get them closer to their goals, she said.

Harris said cabinet members are aware there are companies that can’t raise what they did last year.

“They are taking their role very seriously and looking at accounts and have made a commitment to do the best job possible,” she said of the cabinet.

Cabinet member Denise Hallett with Vulcan Materials said the United Way has always counted on everyone’s help to make the campaign a success.

Woman charged with forging vehicle titles A Salisbury woman faces charges of notary fraud and forging vehicle titles after her arrest Friday by state agents.

The N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles’ License and Theft Bureau brought the charges Friday against Silvia Olivarez Adame, 43, of 635 Roseman Road, Salisbury, after obtaining warrants to search her home and her business, Los Tejanitos, located at 319 Ebenezer Road, Kannapolis, a press release said.

Agents seized computers, business records, financial records, digital media, marijuana, drug paraphernalia and possible counterfeit passports, among other items.

Adame is charged with one

count of perjury on a Division of Motor Vehicles affidavit, eight counts of notary fraud and seven counts of title fraud, all felonies.

She is being held in the Rowan County jail under $10,000 secured bond.

Agents charged Adame’s daughter, Jeamnely Betzabe Gutierrez, 23, with one count of simple possession of marijuana and three counts of possession of drug paraphernalia. She was cited and released.

The arrests resulted from an investigation initiated in March by the Division of Motor Vehicles License and Theft Bureau and the U.S. Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

National Guardsmen deployed to help with flooding relief Four N.C. National Guard members from Salisbury have been deployed to Kinston to help with flood relief in the wake of torrential rains from the remnants of a tropical storm.

The four are crew members aboard a UH 60 Blackhawk helicopter, a National Guard press release said.

Much of eastern North Carolina is still dealing with Thursday’s record-breaking rainfall caused by what was left of Tropical Storm Nicole colliding with a low pressure system.

Wilmington got more than 22 inches of rain.

After about 15 inches of rain in Kinston, the Neuse River there wasn’t expected to crest until Tuesday evening at 3 feet above flood stage.

“We want the citizens to know all about the agencies supported by United Way and all the programs and services they do provide and how valuable that is to our community — and how devastating it would be if they were unable to provide the services,” Hallett said.

She said they try to provide information about the United Way and reach people who have the capacity to give and support the agencies so that “our county can stay thriving for next year.”

As always, there will be weekly report meetings on how the campaign is going.

The lawsuit also names the United Steelworkers of America as a defendant. The suit said the union was included because it’s a party to the collective bargaining agreement under which the tests are administered, and therefore must be included in any request for a permanent injunction to stop the testing.

The company and the union did not immediately respond Friday to e-mailed copies of the lawsuit.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is suing to stop United States Steel Corp. from randomly testing probationary employees for alcohol use, saying the tests led to the illegal firing of a diabetic who said her positive results were false.

The lawsuit, filed late Thursday in a Pittsburgh federal court, contends an employee identified only as Abigail DeSimone was fired from U.S. Steel’s plant in Clairton on Feb. 7, 2008 for violating the company’s alcohol policy, nine days after two breath tests given 15 minutes apart showed positive results.

“Ms. DeSimone advised the administering nurse that she (DeSimone) was a diabetic and insisted that she had not ingested any alcohol within the past month,” the lawsuit said. “Ms. DeSimone suggested to the nurse that her diabetic condition may have

Board, which administers the SAT, said students are discouraged from “expensive and repetitive” test taking.

“It’s not something they can cram for,” Bunin said.

him. Chase Pierson is a good writer, but math isn’t his strong point, she said.

“We haven’t made a decision,” she said. “He’ll probably take both.”

Kristen Campbell, an executive director at Kaplan Test Prep and Admissions, said that when counseling students on which test they should take, she goes over some of the major differences between the SAT and ACT. For example: • The SAT penalizes for wrong answers by 1/4 point.

The ACT does not.

• The essay is mandatory

ACT spokesman Ed Colby.

“We would like to see more students taking the ACT in California.”

Over the last decade, and especially in the last five years, the ACT has outpaced the dominant SAT in the number of new test takers statewide.

In California, for instance, the ACT had 55,733 students take the test in 2006; 34,638 more students took the test in 2010.

The SAT had 191,740 California students take the test in 2006; 19,186 more students took it in 2010.

“In California, the gap has narrowed,” said Bob Schaeffer, the public education director for the National Center for Fair & Open Testing. “The ACT has a few more attractive features. I think you will see further growth in California in the coming decade for the ACT.” Schaeffer said the SAT has historically been dominant on the West and East coasts, while the ACT has been more prevalent in the Midwest, Southwest and mountain states.

“The ACT is quite a different test,” Colby said. “It’s a curriculum test. It measures what they learn in school.”

on the SAT and optional on the ACT. Some colleges do not require the essay.

• The SAT is longer, lasting 3 hours and 45 minutes.

The ACT is 2 hours and 55 minutes, without the 30minute essay exam.

• Campbell said the SAT has more math problems. The ACT has less math, but more of those questions are advanced.

• Scoring is very different between the tests. Until 2006, a perfect score on the SAT was 1,600, but an 800-point section was added, bringing it to 2,400.A perfect score on the ACT is 36.

Campbell said over the last three years, most of the students coming to Kaplan centers are opting to take both tests. That explains why the increased popularity of the ACT hasn’t cut the SAT’s growing numbers.

In the class of 2010, 1,568,835 students nationwide took the ACT, while 1,547,990 students took the SAT. Twenty years ago, 817,000 students across the country took the ACT, while just over 1 million took the SAT. “We have been doing what we can to inform students and counselors about the ACT and the benefits it offers,” said

For years, most students turned to the SAT as the college admission test of choice.

Now, besides deciding when and where to take the all-important test, students are debating whether to take the SAT or ACT, or both.

The ACT officially caught up with the SAT in popularity nationwide for the class of 2010 test takers, although in some states, such as California, students still prefer the SAT 2 to 1.

With several major differences between the tests, parents and students are researching which one will produce the best results.

Every college that requires a college admissions test accepts the SAT or ACT. “It used to be that you just took the SAT,” said Desiree Pierson, whose son Chase is a senior at a Sacramento high school called the School of Engineering and Sciences in the Pocket. “Now, you have a choice and colleges look at those, so we parents are looking at those to see which would work best for our kids.”

Pierson said she is considering academic strengths and weaknesses in deciding with her son which test is right for

For those returning to Livingstone, it’s time to remember, celebrate

BY LAURIE D. WILLIS Livingstone College News Service

The keynote address at Friday’s Homecoming Alumni Convocation at Livingstone College resembled a sermon at times — logical given the speaker is a pastor.

But make no mistake about it: The Rev. Dr. Vernon A. Shannon delivered a powerful, inspiring message that was peppered with laughter and applause and ended with the Varick Auditorium audience on its feet.

Shannon, a member of the class of 1960, or the “Golden Graduates” as they’re affectionately called, is pastor at John Wesley AME Zion Church in Washington, D.C. He is also a member of the Livingstone College Board of Trustees.

The class of 1960 was responsible for Friday’s Alumni Convocation. James McCall presided over the event, JoAnn Bowens Holmes read scripture and said a prayer, Ada McCauley Gaston introduced Shannon and the Rev. Alvin Damon and his wife, Shirley, performed two selections, including “To God Be the Glory,” for which they received a rousing standing ovation.

“I’m honored but challenged that I’ve been chosen by the class of 1960 to speak to you today,” Shannon began after reciting a few lines from “My Livingstone,” the col-

the rev. Dr. vernon A. shannon, a member of the class of 1960, was the convocation speaker Friday. lege’s alma mater. “We’ve gathered here from near and far, from the north, south, east and west to renew our allegiance and to declare to our students today that you are the benefactors of a noble heritage. And we have returned to remember and celebrate the history of our founder, Dr. Joseph Charles Price.”

Shannon talked about the tumultuous climate that existed when he and his classmates attended Livingstone.

“It was a time of great transformation for us and our nation,” Shannon recalled.

“We marched with Martin Luther King Jr. and his colleague, the late Rev. Edgar N. French, who became Livingstone College’s campus min-

ister. We witnessed the Montgomery bus boycott … the Russian Sputnik and the election of John F. Kennedy as President.

“Livingstone was not exempt from the turmoil that was going on throughout the nation,” Shannon continued.

“There had been a sit-in at the Woolworth lunch counter in Greensboro, but at Livingstone some students had been told they could sit only in the balcony at the local theater.

Like students throughout the country, the students of Livingstone marched and many went to jail not only to protest laws of segregation but to affirm our equality and dignity to fight against injustice and unfair laws.”

Shannon injected humor by recalling a time when he and another Livingstone student, fluent in several languages, attempted to get served at a whites-only restaurant.

“The restaurant manager shouted at us, ‘Can’t you read that sign?’ ” Shannon said.

“My friend who was fluent in French and German replied, ‘Yes we can read. In what language would you like for us to read to you? English, French or German?’ ” Several times during his speech, Shannon referenced the African proverb that says it takes a village to raise a child.

“For many of us, we were the first in our families to be sent off to college,” Shannon

said. “Our parents, many of whom did not have the benefit of a college education, had dreams for their children … in spite of deprivations and oppression. Some of our parents washed other people’s clothes, ironed clothes that were not their own, scrubbed other people’s floors so that their sons and daughters might know a better day, and so that we might lift up the villages and communities from which we came.”

Shannon talked about the importance of respecting your elders and said his mother told him to always know his name.

“It does not matter what other people call you as long as you know your name,” Shannon said, quoting her.

“Only answer to your name.

Always have your own definition of who you are because if you do not define yourself, others will define you.”

Shannon was very encouraging to Livingstone students.

“The great breakthrough in your life comes when you realize that you can learn anything you need to learn to accomplish anything you need to accomplish, any goal that you set for yourself,” he said.

“This means there are no limits on what you can be, have or do. Learn something new.

Try something different. Convince yourself that you have no limits and there is no stopping you now. You can make it if you try. Hold to God’s unchanging hand.”

Before Shannon spoke, Livingstone President Dr. Jimmy R. Jenkins Sr. welcomed the alumni and thanked them for their support of the college.

He also reminded them of one of his favorite slogans: “Love is not verbal. Love is action,” while speaking about the need for continued financial support.

Also on Friday, alumni and others gathered in Aggrey Student Union for a UNCF Soul Food Luncheon, and Jenkins delivered a “State of the College” address during an afternoon meeting of the Livingstone College National Alumni Association in Tubman Little Theater.

Carl and Sarah Adams, of Cherryville, said Friday afternoon that they were enjoying themselves. Mr. Adams graduated from Livingstone in 1955; Mrs. Adams attended Livingstone but eventually graduated from the University of the District of Columbia in 1976.

They complimented Jenkins on the changes he has

Bernard Moses, a 1986 Livingstone graduate, was also complimentary of Jenkins.

“I think it’s great that we’re moving forward instead of standing still,” said Moses, who arrived in town Wednesday.

“I’m seeing a lot of classmates, and it’s good to see (familiar) faces because you only get to see them about once a year now,” he said. “That’s my main reason for coming back, and to see how the school is doing.”

Livingstone College’s annual homecoming parade begins at 9 a.m. today at Soldiers Memorial AME Zion Church in Salisbury, 306 N. Church St. The football game against Shaw University begins at 1:30 p.m. in Alumni Memorial Stadium.

The commission said Thursday it would work with the U.S. Department of Labor to offset the unemployment check overpayments given out because of the administrative errors. The labor department also has pledged to review claims in an accelerated method, according to the commission.

A statement from the commission said Perdue also asked the agency to stop cashing any checks sent in by benefit recipients who were trying to repay the overpayments from previous checks.

She also instructed the commission to waive all overpayments from Jan. 1 to May 16 that resulted from an administrative error. That means the recipients are not required to repay anything.

THOMAS IN TOWN Rail fans of all ages enjoy museum event

Carl Plaisted oils and services Thomas the Tank Train at the N.C. Transportation Museum’s annual ‘Day Out With Thomas.’

Every two rounds around the property Plaisted oiled the parts. After 12 years with the train this would be his last trip with Thomas retiring.

BY WAYNE HINSHAW For the Salisbury Post

he biggest event of the entire year is taking place at the N.C. Transportation Museum this weekend.

The annual “Day Out with Thomas” brings Thomas the Tank Engine to the museum for two weekends.

It is the biggest event because it draws the largest crowds of any event held at the museum all year. It is the biggest event because it is the only event with a real, live “smoke-puffing” steam locomotive belching black smoke into the Spencer air.

It is the biggest event because it is for the kids from all over the state who come in excited, smiling and loving Thomas the Train.

Five-year-old Joey Thomas traveled from Raleigh to see Thomas again.

“This is my 3 times,” Joey said. “The ride is pretty good. I can’t believe I’m in the newspaper now.”

After pausing to collect his 5-year-old thoughts, he adds, “Sometimes I want to be a driver of Thomas when I grow up.”

Parents come from all over the state so their children can experience the ride and see the train, buy T-shirts and engineer caps, have their photos made with Thomas or Sir Topham Hatt, and go home with a lifelong memory.

Five-year-old Carl Plaisted, from the Strasburg RailJoey Thomas road in Pennsylvania, travels with Thomas from Raleigh when he appears around the country.

It was used by the Brooklyn-Eastern District Terminal Railway in New York in the switching yard before becoming the celebrity engine, Thomas, in 1998.

Plaisted, working for the railroad, did much of the labor in restoring the engine to running order. After 12 years of traveling with Thomas, this will be his last trip to Spencer with the little engine. He will retire from the railroad at the end of this year.

The Thomas the Tank Engine at the Transportation Museum this weekend, which is a real steam locomotive engine, makes four road trips annually to sites around the country. Many of the stops feature Thomases that are not actual steam engines. These cars, with the famous Thomas face, have no source of power, so they must be pushed with a diesel engine from behind. They have no system of producing the famous smoke from their stacks.

So the Thomas who visits the Transportation Museum is special for local fans.

Today and Sunday are the last two days of the tour this season. All advance tickets for today are sold out, so Sunday is the best chance to go out and ride the famous little train. Other activities associated with the visit are available both days.

Section of I-85 closing as improvement project begins RALEIGH — Motorists will encounter traffic pattern changes next week as construction work on phase one of the I85 Corridor Improvement Project gets under way in Davidson County near the Yadkin River.

The N.C. Department of Transportation will close the ramp from I-85 North to N.C. 150 on Tuesday, Oct. 5, at 7 a.m., weather permitting.

It will remain closed for the duration of the project.

During construction, a detour route will be in place for motorists traveling north on I-85.

They will drive past the closed ramp and take Exit 85 toward Clark Road. They will then follow the detour signs on Clark Road and Salisbury Road, which will lead them to N.C. 150.

The closure is necessary to build a new interchange, which will improve access to N.C. 150.

It will feature ramps to and from I-85 North and I-85 South.

The interchange work is part of the $136 million contract awarded to Flatiron-Lane, a joint venture of Flatiron Constructors Inc. and The Lane Construction Corp., to widen nearly 3.5 miles of I-85 from four lanes to eight lanes and replace eight bridges, including the I-85 Bridge over the Yadkin River. The project is scheduled to be complete by January 2013.

Man charged after snatching cash register from Salisbury store A Wilkes County man was charged with common law robbery after police say he snatched a cash register from Pop’s Country Store in Salisbury.

According to the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office, Carl William Myers, 26, of 483 Moravian Mill Road in Moravian Falls, robbed the store just before 10 p.m.

Thursday.

Witnesses told police Myers entered the store, gathered some groceries and presented them at the counter to the MYERS cashier.

As she rang up the items and bagged them, police say Myers stepped behind the counter, jabbed a finger into her side and said, “I’ll shoot you.” He reportedly pushed past her, grabbed the cash register and fled toward the door.

A witness close by named Andrew Derby noticed a disturbance inside the store and entered. When Myers ran outside, Derby chased and tried to stop him, and the two wrestled briefly before Derby’s mother shouted at him to let go.

In the scuffle, Myers lost a red baseball cap in the parking lot.

Witnesses told police he then fled on foot north on U.S. 601.

Officers arrived at the store, located at 5285 U.S. Highway 601, shortly after 10 p.m. They ran a K-9 track in search of Myers, who was located 15 minutes later in a wooded area half a mile from the store. The cash register was found within 20 feet of Myers.

Myers was taken into custody and was found to have additional warrants out in Wilkes County for misdemeanor larceny and driving while license revoked.

He was charged with common law robbery and placed in the Rowan County Detention Center under $12,500 bond.

Witnesses told police Myers was transported to the store in a white Ford truck by a man known only as “Scott.”

After the robbery, witnesses say Scott yelled out his truck window, “I ain’t got nothing to do with this,” and drove away north on U.S. 601. He turned left onto Deal Creek Drive before stopping and running into the woods.

Myers said he did not know the driver, but police are conducting further investigation.

One of three sex offenders arrested and jailed One of three sex offenders sought by the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office has been arrested and jailed.

James Terry Hosch, 40, was arrested in Charlotte on Tuesday, according to police.

He was placed the into Rowan County Detention Center at HOSCH about noon Thursday under $25,000 bond.

Hosch now has been charged with failing to register as a sex offender.

The sheriff’s office is still looking for two sex offenders with outstanding warrants for their arrest: • Anthony Tyrone Pressley, 34; last known address is the streets of Salisbury.

• Angel Yvonne Stiller, 37; last known address is 165 Zeb St., Salisbury.

Authorities ask anyone with information on the whereabouts of these people to call the Sheriff’s Office at 704-216-8700.

Salisbury man charged with disorderly conduct A Salisbury man was arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct after police say he he became belligerent when officers tried to assist him.

Officers from the Salisbury Police Department responded to a report of an assault early Friday morning at the 100 block of North Shaver Street. They found Lee Royal Reed Jr., 53, of 434 Morlan Park Road in Salisbury, on the street behind the Wilco-Hess.

According to the Salisbury

Local ‘extreme makeover’ planned for Saturdays by High Rock church High Rock Community Church is inviting volunteers to be part of a local “extreme makeover” every Saturday by repairing a family’s home near the church on Bringle Ferry Road.

It’s called Project Nehemiah.

Fire gutted the house, which also suffered water and smoke damage. Following that, the air conditioning unit and remaining house contents were stolen.

People wanting to help will gather to work on the modified makeover for the next few weeks to finish gutting the damaged areas and then start the makeover, such as installing new drywall, floors, roof, cabinets, yard work etc.

Volunteers are needed to help make this a community wide project. Donations of money and supplies are also needed to complete the restoration in the coming weeks.

This makeover “mission at home” is named after Nehemiah of the Old Testament, whose faith and initiative rebuilt the decrepit walls and gates of Jerusalem.

For more information or to sign up to help, please call High Rock Community Church at 704-630-0888.

Police Department, Reed told officers he had been walking along the street when he was “jumped” and robbed by three men he didn’t know. He said they hit him on the head and took his money.

When officers tried to further question and assist Reed, he cursed at them. Police say Reed then began cursing at and threatening people on a nearby porch.

Officers asked him to leave the area if he didn’t want their help, and when he continued cursing and yelling, Reed was taken into custody.

He was checked by Rowan County Emergency Services and treated for minor injuries to the head. According to the police report, he was found to be intoxicated.

Reed then was charged with disorderly conduct or disturbing the peace. He was held in the Rowan County Detention Center until sober.

Charlotte man pleads guilty to felony forgery A Charlotte man will spend at least 78 months in prison for forgery and uttering, the Cabarrus County District Attorney’s Office said in a press release Friday.

Terence Brown pleaded guilty to felony forgery and felony uttering and admitted his status as a habitual felon, Brandy Cook, an assistant district attorney in Cabarrus candidate for Rowan County district attorney, said in the press release.

Sentenced last week in Cabarrus County Superior Court, Brown received an active prison term of a minimum of 78 months to a maximum of 103 months.

The offense occurred May 12, when the Kannapolis Po-

lice Department responded to Wachovia bank for an investigation of check fraud. A bank employee told police the suspect, who was still in the teller line, had presented her with a check that appeared to have been altered by removing the original recipient’s name and adding the suspect’s name.

Two officers spoke to the suspect, identified as Brown, who said he was trying to cash a check for a company that he worked for and that the bank had a problem with the check.

During the investigation, officers noted that Brown’s North Carolina identification card appeared to be altered as well, according to the press release.

Father of Felicia Gibson arrested and charged Nathaniel Ray Gibson, 52, father of Felicia Laverne Gibson, was arrested Thursday night on a charge of resisting, delaying or obstructing a public officer.

A warrant for Gibson’s arrest was taken out Monday — the same day his daughter was arrested on the same charge.

The police report did not include details about why he was charged.

According to the police report, Salisbury Police Officer Mark Hunter saw Gibson on the sidewalk Thursday near the intersection of Main and Liberty streets and arrested him in the 100 block of Liberty Street.

He was placed in the Rowan County Detention Center under $400 bond. His court date is scheduled for Oct. 20.

In 2009, Hunter charged Felicia Gibson with resisting, delaying or obstructing an officer after she refused to go inside her house as he made a traffic stop on her street. She

was recording the incident on video.

She was charged again Monday when police say she cursed at Hunter while receiving a parking ticket.

More copper thefts reported in Rowan Two copper thefts were reported in Rowan County this week.

About $350 worth of copper was reported stolen Wednesday from a T-Mobile tower site at 850 Rock Lane in China Grove, according to the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office.

A Salisbury resident who works for T-Mobile arrived at the tower site Wednesday morning to find about 30 feet of copper ground wire had been cut. A copper bass bar also was removed from the tower site.

The resident told police he had last been on the site on Sept. 15, when everything was fine.

Early Monday morning, Fred Steven Strayhorn, of Salisbury, reported damage to the community well on his property at 1155 Hartman Ave. Strayhorn told the sheriff’s office that sometime between 11 p.m. Sunday and midnight, someone went into the unlocked well house, turned off the breaker and cut a 3-foot piece of wire running from the pressure regulator to the well head.

The wire has an estimated value of $100.

The well, which provides water to 14 homes in the community, was rendered inoperable. Strayhorn told police he planned to repair it.

Investigations into both incidents are underway, and there are no suspects at this time.

'My Dear Friend'

Local AARP to host information session for caregivers, families, friends can be compromised by changes in their health.

The We Need to Talk seminar is designed to assist family and friends to have successful conversations about when and how an older person can stay mobile when it’s time to limit or stop driving.

The seminar will be held on Friday, Oct. 15, 12:30–2 p.m. at Rufty-Holmes Senior Center, 1120 S. Martin Luther King Jr. Ave., Salisbury.

There is no charge for the seminar, but reservations are required. Contact: 704216-7714.

Driving today is more difficult than ever because of more traffic, bigger vehicles and faster speeds. Older drivers can adapt to factors that affect their driving by making changes to their vehicle to make it “fit” better.

Doing this could make a lifesaving difference to older drivers and their loved ones.

CarFit is a program designed to give a quick but

comprehensive check of how well a driver and their vehicle work together. A trained professional asks simple questions and completes a 12-point CarFit checklist with the driver and their vehicle. The entire process takes only about 15 minutes, and the driver leaves with recommended car adjustments and adaptations, a list of resources and greater peace of mind.

CarFit will be held Saturday, Oct. 16, 11:30 a.m.– 2:30 p.m. at Rufty-Holmes Senior Center, 1120 S. Martin Luther King Jr. Ave. There is no charge for the event but reservations are required.

Contact: 704-216-7714.

The Salisbury-Rowan AARP chapter meets the first Thursday of the month at Rufty-Holmes Senior Center, 1120 S. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd., at 1 p.m.

The last meeting of each calendar quarter (March, June, September, and December) includes a covereddish lunch at noon followed

by the regular meeting.

Rowan County residents who are 50 years and older are invited to join the chapter. You do not have to be retired.

Annual dues for the chapter are $3.

DARTS AND LAURELS

Sad record for hot year Dart to the record number of children who have died in vehicles on hot days this year. As of the end of September, 48 youngsters, ranging from infants to a 6year-old, have succumbed to hyperthermia after being left or becoming trapped in a hot car or truck. That surpasses the nationwide record of 45 deaths set in 2005.

Safety experts can’t point to one particular factor behind the spike. It was an unusually hot summer in many parts of the nation, but high temperatures don’t necessarily correlate with a higher number of hyperthermia car deaths. What is sadly clear is the typical scenario that leads to the deaths. The majority involve infants who are strapped into a car seat in the back of an automobile or van; the distracted driver forgets the child is there and parks the vehicle with the windows rolled up.

Safety experts say an automated alarm system may eventually help reduce the number of hot-car deaths. Meanwhile, they suggest that drivers who travel with infants get in the habit of putting a cell phone, purse, briefcase or other item beside the car seat as a reminder that there’s a baby on board. Drivers also shouldn’t be under the misconception that hot-car deaths occur only in summer months.

They’ve occurred in every month except January.

• • • Laurels to businesses that promote recycling and other “green” efforts to enhance stewardship of the environment.

Mooresville-based Lowe’s announced last week that it has launched recycling centers in nearly 1,700 stores nationwide. The centers allow customers to drop off plastic shopping bags, rechargeable batteries, old cell phones and unbroken CFL bulbs. The latter is especially helpful because of concerns that improper disposal of energysaving CFLs — or compact fluorescents — will release harmful mercury into the environment. When it comes to recycling CFLs, Lowe’s will contribute a few itself: It recently retrofitted more than 3 million of the high-efficiency fluorescent lamps in its stores. Lowe’s says that represents enough energy savings to power 50,000 homes for a year.

• • • Laurels to Cheerwine President and CEO Cliff Ritchie, who was recently inducted into the Beverage Hall of Fame. As a Post story noted, the hall is located in Waco, Texas. Why Waco? It’s the home of Dr Pepper. In fact, Dr Pepper was originally called “Waco” when it was first sold in 1885, about 32 years before L.D. Peeler mixed the first batch of the soda that would bear the Cheerwine name. Waco has the Dr Pepper Museum, along with the Beverage Hall of Fame.

Moderately Confused

Great Recession changed us Americans are more anxious, less optimistic fter the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression formed a frugal generation fearful about living beyond one’s means and adept at “making do.” The Great Recession already has changed this generation in ways we might not have expected.

Even as we clutch our ever-improving mobile devices for comfort and near-constant communication, bombarded with information on subjects that didn’t even exist just a few years ago, we are increasingly an anxious society, afraid we are in irreversible decline, as families and as a nation.

We are a far less optimistic society than we traditionally have been. When researchers recently told us the recession ended in June of 2009, there was a national snort of derision. Second-quarter economic growth was only 1.7 percent.

ANN One out of every ten adults is MCFEATTERS unemployed. The Pew Research Center found that since December 2007, 55 percent of all adults in the labor force have lost a job, had their pay cut, faced reduced hours or secured only parttime employment.

As we struggle to make ends meet, we are warned we must save far more for retirement. What little we have saved has yet to recover from the financial collapse. The house is no longer a cash cow for emergencies or a down payment on a car. Many will never buy a house or a new car. College graduates can’t find jobs and are returning to live with parents, who are trying to figure out how to help their parents. More children are being reared by grandparents. Nearly one in five women will never bear a child, up from one in ten 40 years ago.

Years of war, the collapse of the financial system, scandals in the churches and the inability of our politicians to solve basic problems have made us skeptical of institutions, worried about the future and convinced our country is slipping in too many ways, from manufacturing prowess to educational achievement.

Our high school dropout rates are horrendous, even as the pool of low-skill jobs decreases. Colleges are expensive beyond belief, and only half of those who attend will be graduated.

Our continuing reliance on imported oil is a harbinger of worse things to come.

Demographers paint a picture of a society in flux but less fixated on consumption. We realize that too much debt is unsustainable and are trying to shed it as fast as possible.

We understand that the rest of the world is catching up to our achievements, that the economies of emerging nations are growing faster than ours, that countries such as China and India are new powerhouses, striving to overtake us.

What can we do? It may be bad for the overall economy, but every family has to save as much as possible. We have to reduce consumption and continue to pay down our debts.

We have to take charge of our financial lives.

We have to take jobs that once we could not have afforded because they pay less than we think we’re worth. We must get more involved in our children’s educations so there is a vast pool of talented, creative people to devise products and services that will satisfy a huge new consumer demand in emerging nations.

We have to demand that our politicians wean us off imported oil and do what we can to lower our own energy costs. We have to do more volunteering to help our communities and those in need around us because there will be less help from the states and Washington.

And we have to turn to history to restore our optimism and belief that things will improve. Economic cycles come and go. After the Depression and World War II, American resourcefulness, ingenuity and hard work combined to create a booming economy. That can — and will — happen again.

Meanwhile, “making do” has become the new normal.

What Democrats have done Here’s what the Democrats have done for Americans: We Democrats have given citizens tax cuts or tax rebates.

We Democrats are responsible for creating or improving most veterans benefits, including health care. We Democrats created Medicare and Medicaid. We support medical care for everyone.

President Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi are the Democrats who have recently

led the successful efforts to pass such programs.

Republicans have tried unsuccessfully to block us at every step of the way.

Why GOP is likely to repeat Obama’s ‘mistakes’ From Democratic political consultant Gary Pearce, blogging at www.talkingaboutpolitics .com: ichael Barone of Fox News made an astute point about Obama at this week’s John Locke luncheon. He said Obama is a very different president from Bill Clinton: Clinton was “unencumbered by principle,” while Obama is an “ideologue.”

Now, “ideologue” is a loaded word. You could also say “principled.”

You could apply the same description to the Republicans who expect to be in power after Nov. 2. And they, being “ideologues” or “principled,” likely will repeat Obama’s political “mistakes” of the past two years.

I say mistakes in quotes because I think Obama knew what he was doing. From all available evidence, he didn’t push through the stimulus, health care reform and financial-regulato-

M

ry reform because he thought they were popular. In fact, he had every reason to know they weren’t: e.g., the Massachusetts Senate election.

Obama seized on what he believed was, if not a mandate, then an opportunity to do what he thought was right and was elected to do.

Imagine that! A politician who did what he thought was right, even if it was unpopular. (Isn’t that what voters always say they want? Yes, but only if he does what they think is right.)

You can call Obama’s decisions courageous — or political suicide. But don’t expect the Republicans to learn that lesson if they win this year. They will interpret the 2010 election as an endorsement of their principles, where it may just be a rejection of the incumbents’ policies — or a reaction to the bad economy. They’ll be just like the Democratic ideologues who interpreted 2008 as an endorsement of their policies rather than rejection of the incumbents.

eet my new best friend, Mike. I can’t remember his last name, but I’ve got his number on speed dial. Lately, I spend more time talking to him than I do to myself. Which is to say, Mike and I talk a lot.

“This is Mike,” he shouted into the phone when I called him this morning. In the background I could hear what sounded like a swarm of killer bees, or hopefully, I thought, for Mike’s sake, a really big electric drill.

“Hey, Mike,” I said, “how’s SHARON your mama and RANDALL them?”

That greeting was lost on Mike. Bad connection, maybe.

Or perhaps it’s that he’s not from the South, and never learned to appreciate the art of such pleasantries. Or maybe he just had bigger fish to fry than to stand around chewing the fat with a woman who birddogs him like a duck on a June bug.

“Hello, Mrs. Randall,” he said in a pleasant tone much like that a nurse might take with a patient under anesthesia. “What can I do for you today?”

It was one of a dozen calls I’d spent the morning making to various sources for various reasons, and I had to think hard for a minute to remember why exactly I had called him.

Oh, right. The roof. It leaks.

My phone affair with Mike began when my husband and I decided we needed to repair a leaky roof on the patio.

The “we” in this case meant “me,” of course. My husband left for work as usual. And I — because I work at home and will jump at any chance to avoid it — began making fortyleven phone calls (the number my mother preferred when quantifying things unquantifiable) to get bids and estimates.

When I called the company that built the house, they sent an inspector, who agreed it was a problem in the construction. They’d redo the roof (alleluia!), but we had to remove the solar panels and sunshades.

Sounds simple? It wasn’t.

Forty-leven more phone calls later, the work began in stages, with Mike coordinating crews (roofers, stucco guys, painters) and me coordinating Mike.

Tell me this: If you work in an office 9-5, how on Earth do you get anything done — go to the post office or pick up laundry or attend a conference at your child’s school — let alone be on hand to watch your roof get ripped apart? I was home all day and it was still nearly enough to make me lose my religion.

My job was to be around whenever they arrived and let them in the backyard.

I was good at that.

But I was not much good at being happy about it. That occurred to me this morning after talking to Mike. I’d told him we were concerned about possible water damage inside a column, so he offered to delay the stucco work and send some guys to cut into the post to let us take a look. It would take longer, but he wanted us to be happy.

I hung up the phone thinking about what he’d said. Happy?

Suddenly I recalled months ago, listening to a friend, seeing the look in her eyes as she described how it felt to come home one night to find on her door a notice of foreclosure.

There’s a fine line between having your roof repaired and having no roof at all.

It’s easy to lose sight, to forget to be thankful for things we take for granted — good health, jobs, food on our table, friends and loved ones who drive us half crazy — blessings in disguise.

Tomorrow I will call Mike to thank him and his crew for all their patience and good work.

Happiness is a matter of perspective.

Let’s hope I remember that a few months from now when we start ripping out our tile floors.

Bank of America holding off on foreclosures in 23 states

NEW YORK (AP) — CNN fired news anchor Rick Sanchez on Friday, a day after he called Jon Stewart a bigot in a radio show interview where he also questioned whether Jews should be considered a minority.

Sanchez, who was born in Cuba and had worked at CNN since 2004, was host of the two-hour “Rick’s List� on CNN’s afternoon lineup. He did a prime-time version of that show in recent months, but that ended this week because the time slot is being filled by a new show featuring former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer and columnist Kathleen Parker.

Stewart had frequently poked fun of Sanchez on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.� “He’s upset that someone of my ilk is almost at his level,� Sanchez said during a satellite radio interview with Pete Dominick. Details of the interview were posted on the Mediaite website Friday and quickly became a topic of conversation in the media world.

Sanchez said that Stewart is bigoted toward “everybody else that’s not like him.� He said Stewart “can’t relate to what I grew up with,� saying his family had been poor and he had seen prejudice directed at his father.

Sanchez dismisses it when Dominick points out that Stewart, who is Jewish, is also a minority. “I’m telling you that everyone who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they, the people in this country who are Jewish, are an oppressed minority?� Sanchez said, adding a sarcastic “yeah.�

WASHINGTON (AP) — Bank of America is delaying foreclosures in 23 states as it examines whether it rushed the foreclosure process for thousands of homeowners without reading the documents.

The move adds the nation’s largest bank to a growing list of mortgage companies whose employees signed documents in foreclosure cases without verifying the information in them.

Bank of America isn’t able to estimate how many homeowners’ cases will be affected, Dan Frahm, a spokesman for the Charlotte-based bank, said Friday. He said the bank plans to resubmit corrected documents.

Two other companies, Ally Financial Inc.’s GMAC Mortgage unit and JPMorgan Chase, have halted tens of thousands of foreclosure cases after similar problems became public.

CHIEF FroM 1a The patrol now offers critical incident debriefings in these situations, which James considers a vast improvement.

“In the old days, you had to suck it up and go on. That’s what was expected of you,” he said.

But troopers need the opportunity to talk to professionals about tragedy, James said.

••• For a small town, Spencer landed a police chief with a big-time resume.

James came out of retirement in August to take the reins at the Spencer Police Department. His job application nearly knocked the socks off Town Manager Larry Smith.

“It’s very rare that a small town will get that kind of applicant with 30 years of impeccable service,” Smith said.

James joined the Highway Patrol in 1981 as a trooper and was promoted repeatedly until he oversaw troop operations for the state and retired a major at age 50.

Smith called James’ qualifications and performance during the interview process “mind-boggling.”

“He jumped off the page,” Smith said.

James, now 51, was one of three finalists.

His communication skills and down-toearth demeanor set him apart, said Robert Bowlin, police chief in Wilkesboro who helped choose James.

“You could tell that he was a good fit for the town of Spencer,” Bowlin said. “They were looking for someone that people could embrace and trust.”

James will focus on professionalism and community policing.

“He and the town officials and the citizens will work together to make Spencer a very safe place to live,” Bowlin said.

Despite his credentials, James has a humble personality.

Growing up on a 34-acre farm in Stokes County, James wanted to become a veterinarian. When he retired from the patrol, he poured himself into raising quarter horses on his farm outside Asheville.

That lasted for a year.

“There was still just something from the law enforcement side that I missed,” he said. “I decided it was time to go back to work.”

So Thunder Hill Farm in Mills River, N.C., is for sale, and James and his wife, Brenda, are looking for a home close to Spencer. He still has seven horses and hopes to find a farm in Rowan County.

JON C. LAKEY/saLisBUrY post

spencer police chief Michael James, right, shares a light moment with officer Brian Hill.

James walks down the hallway at the spencer police department, where his focus is on increasing the professionalism of the force.

“I would like to keep the horses, even though I don’t have as much time to ride,” James said. “It’s relaxing to watch them.”

While James commutes to Spencer, his wife, an accountant, cares for the horses. He does a lot of catching up when he gets home.

“She doesn’t do stalls,” he said with a laugh.

Son Michael is a student at N.C. State University, and daughter Ashley is a nursing student at Cabarrus College of Health Sciences.

James’ 95-year-old grandmother, Sallie Newsom, played the piano when he was sworn in as chief.

Spencer appealed to James because the town is between his parents in King and his wife’s in Charlotte. James had been in Spencer several times, he said.

••• James hasn’t made many changes to the police department.

“I’m not a guy to make changes very quickly unless I think they are needed,” he said. “I like to observe for a sufficient amount of time before we make decisions.”

James has commanded respect without saying a word, Smith said. Before his arrival, several officers shaved their facial hair, he said.

“It’s the epitome of natural leadership when you influence without even having to direct,” Smith said. “He has proven to be everything that the paperwork indicated he would.”

James said he wants to increase the pro-

fessionalism of the force, which includes 12 officers.

“We have great guys and they are professional already, but any organization can improve,” he said.

He also wants officers out of their cars, walking.

“I want us to be more proactive, and we do that through better community policing,” said James, who completed a nine-month police administration training program at Northwestern University.

Police should partner with neighborhoods so residents are more aware of criminal activity, James said.

“We all can work together to make our town safer,” he said.

Officers on foot can learn valuable information from residents and business owners, he said.

James will focus on property crimes and vandalism and is investigating complaints about suspicious fires and drug activity, Smith said.

James had to implement a tough new policy when he arrived. Officers can no longer drive their patrol cars home. The town board ended the practice to save money, Smith said.

“They can’t drive their cars home, but they see China Grove officers driving their cars home. That is tough,” James said. “It has affected morale, but we’re doing everything we can to boost morale in other ways.”

James said he would like the town board to reverse the policy when the economy recovers.

• •• N.C. Highway Patrol retired Major Tony Spainhour saw something special in James when the rookie trooper was assigned to his district in 1981.

“He was unique to me,” Spainhour said.

“He was very mature for his age and very dedicated to law enforcement.”

He noted James’ common sense and unusual early experience. As a criminal justice major at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, James had worked for two years as a campus police officer.

“He didn’t go through a lot of rookie mistakes that a lot of other officers make,” Spainhour said. “He was educated, a quick learner.”

He said he knew James would rise through the ranks in the patrol. Now, James is qualified for any law enforcement position, Spainhour said.

In an agency that has been rocked by scandal recently, James’ career is spotless, Spainhour said.

“Mike was just always a super officer and a good family man, the kind of person you like to have represent your agency,” he said.

He spent his entire career in the field and knows the workings of law enforcement, Spainhour said.

“Spencer is very fortunate to get someone like Mike,” he said.

Water from a flooded road is pumped into the ocean at carolina Beach on Friday.

WATER FroM 1a State emergency officials said Bertie may have been the worst-hit county with floods leaving many areas inaccessible by land.

Overnight the First Response Team, a national nonprofit disaster aid group, arrived in Windsor with a hovercraft and began rescuing people trapped by swift-moving floodwaters, including one man who tried to make his way through the currents on foot.

“He was standing there, hanging on to nothing,” said Tad Agoglia, the group’s founder.

“When we got him in the hovercraft, he just held onto me. I’ve never had a full-grown man hold onto me like that, where all I could feel was his body shaking.”

Water in some parts of town was neck-high and rising, Pilloton said.

“It’s getting worse and worse by the hour,” she said.

FLOODING FroM 1a Many school districts delayed the start of classes or closed altogether on Friday.

Officials evacuated about 70 people overnight Thursday from a mobile home community in Kinston because of high water, Roger Dail, director of emergency services in Lenoir County, said.

A U.S. Coast Guard helicopter was dispatched to rescue a woman whose car was swept off N.C. 561 near Ahoskie Friday morning. While trying to get to her, the rescue crew was diverted to a nearby stranded motorist who was hoisted from his pickup into the aircraft.

Before it could get back to the woman, the helicopter was sent to rescue another stranded motorist. A swift water response team helped the woman from her car.

State officials also announced partial evacuations in Beaufort, Craven, Duplin and Prender counties, where rising waters were particularly dangerous for people in low-lying areas. State emergency planners predicted that parts of Burgaw, Elizabethtown, Smithfield, Goldsboro, Kinston, Tarboro and Windsor will face minor to moderate flooding into early next week.

Wilmington had its rainiest five-day period on record since 1871. The city’s 22.54 inches of rain easily beat Hurricane Floyd’s 19.06 inches in 1999.

In addition to the Salisbury helicopter and crew, nine National Guard soldiers and four large vehicles reported last night to New Bern.

“The N.C. Guard will continue to work together with North Carolina Emergency Management authorities to identify critical needs throughout this emergency,” the press release said.

The N.C. National Guard has approximately 12,000 soldiers and airmen, with nearly 600 mobilized for federal ac-

tive duty. Guard members have mobilized for numerous natural disasters, the press release said, and “bring a great deal of knowledge and expertise to this type of relief operation.”

The N.C. National Guard uses a “force package” concept specifically designed to address a wide variety disaster support needs. Force packages range from engineering and security to logistics, aviation, power generation, route clearing and transportation.

The Amish Way

During bad economic times, the Amish lean on one another VA, Ill. (AP) — There are about 45 Amish families and 10 to 12 farms in the Ava and Campbell Hill area, and if one falls on hard times, the rest are there to pick them up.

The Amish community in Southern Illinois can be seen on bicycle or horse and buggy navigating the country roads in Southern Illinois. While their ways may seem foreign to those outside the community, they face many of the same issues such as keeping a business afloat.

Richard Schlabach, owner of Shawnee Country Store in Ava, said the Amish community’s businesses include woodworking and welding shops, dairy farms and carpentry businesses. The store sells foods such as homemade breads, meats, cheeses and candy.

As the economy dropped, some of the businesses were affected.

However, Schlabach said economic conditions actually helped him. He said

A

he believes that with less money, more people started cooking at home — and they wanted healthier, natural ingredients.

“I think it may have actually given us a shot in the arm,” Schlabach said.

He said the store brings in people from local towns such as Murphysboro and Carbondale, as well as visitors from out of state.

Linda Wall of Mount Vernon and her mother, Wanda Waters of Percy, said the food and the friendly environment keep bringing her back.

“I like the people," Wall said. “They’re honest and hard-working. It’s just a really nice place.”

But the harsh economic downturn outside the Amish community still found its way in. Howard Yoder, owner of Hilltop Pallet, said his business operated at 50 percent production for five months in 2009 when the housing crisis affected the price of low-grade wood.

To get through the slump, Yoder said he and

the other workers found help in the community.

When there was no work making pallets, he said other community members who are in the carpentry business took them on and gave them work.

“I feel the church as a whole and the community spirit really helped me

out,” Yoder said.

On the flipside, when something such as the weather prevents outside work from being done, Yoder said anyone in the community without much to do can come to Hilltop Pallet and find an honest day's work. He said he feels that he has been

blessed by God and he wants to give back as much as he can.

“That working together is what helped us,” Yoder said.

Schlabach said as long as their friends and neighbors are there, no one in the Amish community has to worry about

facing any hardships alone.

“We aim to keep everyone taken care of,” Schlabach said.

He said with a community of about 45 families, they have managed to maintain a close-knit community.

“We’re all close together,” Schlabach said. “We all know each other.”

The rough patch Hilltop Pallet saw ended less than a year after it began.

In a good week, Yoder said they produce about nine semi-loads of pallets and 350 in a year.

“About mid-December, (orders) picked back up and have been going strong ever since,” Yoder said.

Schlabach said businesses may not be growing as fast as they would in a good economy, but members of the Amish community stick together and look out for one another — and recession or not, they will get by.

The Rowan County chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness is promoting this week with the motto, “Changing Lives, Changing Attitudes.” There will be many opportunities for people to learn more about mental illness and examine the attitudes they have toward it.

I would like to mention two important attitudinal changes that would help change lives.

The first is for those who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. They can learn that their situation is not hopeless. Seventy to 90 percent of people who get treatment make significant progress on the road to recovery and are able to live productive

lives. There is hope. Medication, therapy, lifestyle changes in exercise, eating and sleep all work together to help people live lives in which they can not only survive but make significant contributions to society.

The movement Boisen founded, Clinical Pastoral Education, trains thousands of pastors and chaplains every year so that they can minister more effectively to their parishioners and patients.

Attitudinal changes would also be of great help in society at large. Many people do not think that mental illness is a real illness. People just need more will power and they will get better. This is not the case. People do not choose to be mentally ill any more than people choose to have cancer. Like cancer, mental illness is real and requires medical attention. Unfortunately, attitudes toward this issue

have meant that the medical expenses of mental illness are often not covered as well as other illnesses. This has a negative impact on those diagnosed with mental illness and on our society at large. People who receive medical treatment are healthier, contribute to the social fabric, and even pay more taxes. Everyone benefits when mental illness is taken seriously and is not treated like a character flaw or idiosyncrasy of a personality.

Boisen notes that mental illness usually manifests itself in individuals in adolescence or later. This is the time when individuals need to grow out of their dependence on parents and acquire a “dependence” on a higher authority. So the relationship between mental illness and religious experience becomes more apparent. Are they both responses to the need to see deeper and be grounded in a life that reach-

es beyond what we have been taught by parents? Do they both illuminate features of a deeper reality? Could it be that illness is sometimes a key to understanding?

Boisen’s life and his questions give me a deep appreciation for the religious journey and the struggle of the mentally ill. He was a person who can help us see that a diagnosis of mental illness does not consign us to hopelessness. It also tells us that mental illness can even become something productive. Jesus said, “Come to me all you who are weary and carrying heavy loads, and I will give you a pause (rest).” May we pause this week to examine our attitudes about the burden and the opportunity of mental illness.

ued in their sinful lifestyle. God showed great patience in Biblical times and I hope his patience will not run out in our time.

If we are going to see a renewal and revival come to our land it is going to take some people crying out to God. It seems history has shown that God waits until people pray and seek him before he pours out revival. I believe God is attracted to someone who persistently asks him to come.

Some people ask for the wind of God to move. Wind brings a change, and that is what we need. Some people refer to God moving like falling rain or streams of water. Water is a life-giving force, and where the spirit of God is moving there is a sense of renewal in the hearts and minds of people. Some people pray for the fire of God. Fire brings change because the old things are burned up, making room for the new things of God. I want to encourage you to pray and to seek God for a fresh move of his spirit. I hope you have a heart to want to see him touch people’s lives with wind, rain, and fire. I am convinced God won’t come unless we invite him. God’s plan is to use us to reach out to the lost and offer them the love, hope, peace, mercy, and grace they so desperately desire. I want to see God move; will you join me in that kind of prayer?

viate some of the problems. I have been studying some of the long-range forecasts which are predicting the dry pattern will continue through fall and into winter. If that is the case, we need to appreciate every drop that falls.

I believe we are also experiencing dryness in a spiritual sense, which doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make much sense if you stop and think about it. If you go back through history and look at times when things have been difficult economically, there is a trend toward spiritual awakening. With the recent prolonged economic woes, there doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t appear to be a spiritual awaking. I am wondering why people arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t turning to God. I want to see a revival. I am praying for renewal for the body of Christ so we can effectively reach out to the lost and give them hope. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe we are living in a particularly worse time than any other time in history. Throughout time people have gone through cycles of seeking and desiring a relationship with God and then times of trying to live without God. Even in the Bible there are examples of times when people lived whole- heartedly for God and times when they lived for their own pleasure. God sent prophets to call the people back.

Sometimes the people responded and other times they contin-

e finally got some decent rains. Last Sunday as I was walking into the grocery store, people were enjoying the rainfall even though it inconvenienced them. I noticed a couple of people walking slowly and DOUG allowing CREAMER the rain to fall gently upon their heads. Even on Monday most people seemed glad to be getting some rain after the long dry spell.

I ate my lunch on the front porch Sunday just listening to the rain fall in the trees. Listening to the rain is such a peaceful and soothing experience. I talked to several people Monday who said they took a nice nap on Sunday while they listened to the rain falling on their roofs.

We had a record breaking hot summer that was missing the usual afternoon showers and thunderstorms. I am afraid we lost a number of plants due to the dry summer. I hope the recent rains will help alle-

t seems to be getting harder and harder to keep our lives in control. The pressures of surviving in our present economic climate; the bombardment of negative influences in politics, church organization, REV. DAVID and civil NELSON government; and the realization that our own resources, skills, and time are beyond our ability to solve much of what we all face, leaves us a precious little to rally around for encouragement and hope.

The general mood in our midst today is to join some form of â&#x20AC;&#x153;gripersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; conferenceâ&#x20AC;? to simply lament what is wrong or out of control. Our blinders seem to be on as we try to look for a brighter tomorrow. It would be easy to determine that we all suffer from a personality depression leaving us frantic to just survive.

The extreme negativism around us is nothing more than a symptom.

It is a coping mechanism alone and does nothing to begin to solve our problems. If we continue in our complaining, maybe we feel that will at least salve our hurt.

Psychologists tell us that â&#x20AC;&#x153;when we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get what we want, we become angry.â&#x20AC;? We want a more peaceful environment, a cause for hope, and a trust that somehow the right leadership will correct our predicament. Oh, that we could just find the right combination. We want resolution, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not coming. Therefore, we simply wallow in more complaining and anger.

As Christians, we believe that our hope is in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The writer of Hebrews puts it this way: â&#x20AC;&#x153;we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to seize the hope set before us.

We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner shrine ...where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf.â&#x20AC;? (Hebrews 6: 18-19) Our Lord knows what we are facing, and he has given us a hope that is an anchor for our souls.

What may seem to be hopeless in the world around us is not without hope in our Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s realm.

He will see us through. If we keep our focus on this hope, we will not be held prisoner to a world of hopelessness.

Maybe it would do well for us to pray for Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s divine guidance and presence to enable us to see beyond our current circumstance to a realistic future hope. The Lord knows, we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t continue to make it if we don't.

A number of pleasant developments are likely to be in the offing in the next 365 days where your social life is concerned. You could establish several new friendships and associations that will be envied by all.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Dare to be different and think creatively, especially when it comes to your work or a project that is extremely important. Use your smarts to avoid impediments and achieve objectives.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - Someone you have been hoping would notice you has actually been discreetly observing you with admiration for some time. This might be brought out in the open at last.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - When it comes to financial or commercial matters, your perceptions are likely to be better than usual and right on the money. Use these assets in ways that could benefit you and others.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Even though some of your ideas and thoughts might conflict with certain people with whom you’re involved, your wonderful, disarming attitude will gain you their acceptance anyway.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - If you are doing any comparison shopping for an expensive item, let quality take precedence over price. Carefully check out your potential purchase to determine its true worth.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) - By taking special pride in all of your endeavors, the quality of what you produce will reflect this and be admired by all those who observe your carefulness and diligence.

Aries (March 21-April 19) - You have a wonderful quality about you that others will find to be quite appealing. It all boils down to you expressing a blend of cooperation, consideration and compassion.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) - It’s one of those days when you’ll retain everything you learn, and will later use it to your advantage. However, it’s the kind of knowledge you can’t get out of books, but only from observing.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) - Some kind of innate knowledge you have that might be a trifle difficult to define will be of great benefit to you career-wise, financially and even perhaps personally.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) - Express your inner urgings, hunches and insights in as many practical ways as you can. When your inner voice speaks, put its urgings to use in your everyday affairs.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Friends are likely to tell you things in confidence that they wouldn’t talk about with just anybody. When put in action, one of these news bites could have substantial ramifications.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Something mutually beneficial could result when you align with someone whose ideals and thoughts parallel yours. It’s an association that’s destined to last a lifetime.

Excess weight doesn’t always cause diabetes but it is among risk factors

What happens if you duck?

BY PHILLIP ALDER United Feature Syndicate

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart said, “There you stand like a duck in a thunderstorm again — aren’t you ever going to understand?”

Yes, I understand that this is the same deal as yesterday’s, but I am going to look at another aspect of it. South is in three no-trump. West leads the heart three, East putting up his nine (or covering dummy’s 10 with his jack). What happens if de-

tary life.

She is constantly complaining about her “bad genes.”

When I suggested that her diabetes might be due to her eating and exercise habits, she explained that she is not obese and therefore did not cause herself to become diabetic.

I don’t know what her doctor has told her regarding lifestyle, but in general it does seem to me that type 2 diabetes is looked upon as your fault if you are heavy but beyond your control and the result of “bad genes” if you are thin. I think this is a dangerous mentality and also quite untrue.

Dear reader: Absolutely. Type 2 is the most common form of diabetes. It is commonly associated with being overweight, but this does not mean that simply being overweight will cause you to develop diabetes.

Rather, excess weight is simply a risk factor. Other risk factors include a family history, leading a sedentary life, age, ethnicity and more. Diabetes clarer ducks this trick, leaving East on play?

As I mentioned yesterday, North’s jump to three no-trump is a slight overbid, but not unreasonable with two good fourcard suits. It also puts pressure on the opponents, who do not know the strength of the South hand.

In the real world, it probably would not matter if South ducked at trick one, because we are all taught to return our partner’s suit in no-trump contracts.

However, it does put the contract at risk.

East should realize that his partner has only four hearts because he led a fourth-highest three and the two is in the dum-

may be associated with other health conditions, such as high blood pressure and abnormal cholesterol levels.

Type 2 diabetes is caused when cells become resistant to insulin and the pancreas is unable to make enough insulin to overcome the resistance. When this occurs, the cells no longer take in sugar, causing it to build up in the bloodstream. The exact reason why this happens is unknown.

Symptoms can include increased thirst, extreme hunger, slow-healing sores, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, frequent infections and blurred vision.

Complications can arise from untreated or poorly managed diabetes. Short-term complications need to be addressed immediately because, if left untreated, they can lead to seizures and/or coma. Shortterm issues include hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and increased ketones (potentially toxic acids) in the my. Also, South must have the ace; otherwise, he would have taken the first trick. So, if the defense is getting only three heart tricks, it needs two other winners to defeat the contract.

Where will they come from?

East should shift to the club 10 (a surrounding play), although leading the eight also works here.

If South covers with his jack, West wins with his queen and reverts to hearts. The defense collects one spade, three hearts and one club. If South takes his club ace and leads a spade, West wins and returns a low club. The defenders gather in one spade, one heart and three clubs.

urine.

Long-term complications develop gradually. If the diabetes is left untreated or poorly treated, these can become permanent or life-threatening.

Long-term issues include cardiovascular disease, bone and joint problems, skin and mouth conditions, and nerve, eye or kidney damage.

Type 2 diabetes is often preventable if proper steps are taken to manage risk factors. It is important to maintain a healthful diet and exercise routine.

Remember to include plenty of fruits, vegetables and whole grains while reducing your intake of animal products and sweets. Simply substituting sugar-free products for normally sugar-laden treats is not helpful. Any excessive intake of simple or complex sugars (carbohydrates) can result in high blood-sugar levels. A registered dietician is an excellent resource in developing a meal plan.

Exercise can lower blood sugar and decrease insulin re-

sistance. For those with diabetes, aerobic exercise is the most beneficial and should be included most days of the week for at least 30 minutes per day.

In those who develop the condition regardless of lifestyle changes, treatment is available.

These include medication to stimulate the pancreas to produce more insulin, inhibit the production and release of glucose causing cells to need less insulin to transport sugar, block the action of enzymes that break down carbohydrates, or make tissues more sensitive to insulin and insulin injections.

As you can see, simply being overweight isn’t enough to cause diabetes. While your friends may be thin, they likely have risk factors for developing diabetes and have, thus far, failed to make the necessary changes. They are accountable for their health, and blaming "bad genes" is just an excuse. They must change their lifestyles and not rely only on medication to solve this problem.

People who are overweight

can benefit greatly from losing weight, and in some cases, that may be all that is necessary to improve or even reverse type 2 diabetes (or high cholesterol or high blood pressure). Those with normal weights still need to be accountable and make changes.

Dear Dr. Gott: Can you please discuss lifestyle risks for diabetes other than weight? I have three friends who are thin and have all developed type 2 diabetes.

Although they are not overweight, they have terrible eating habits. I went to the supermarket with one of them and watched as she loaded her cart with pancake mix, syrup, diet soda and several boxes of processed frozen dinners DR. PETER that were advertised as GOTT healthy but contained huge amounts of sodium.

Her concession to the fact that she has diabetes was buying light syrup and some bananas. She did not have a single vegetable other than what was included in her frozen meals. She also leads a seden-

SALISBURY POST

W E AT H E R

Football season creates Tragedy in the skies Plunging U.S. balloonists feared dead in Italy a family dilemma DEAR AMY: I have a son who is 14 years old and in the 9th grade.

He plays football. My husband is always pushing him to do better, but I think he is great already.

He is one of the best players on his team. The coach thinks he should go on the varsity team, but I don’t agree.

My husband and I don’t see eye to eye on this.

I think that if my husband keeps putting all of this pressure on him he is ASK going to end up hating footAMY ball and then quit the team — and he is a wonderful player.

Can you help me to decide what to do?

— Stressed Out Mom DEAR STRESSED: One person’s point of view is missing from your account — your son’s.

He is the most important character in this story, and in my view he is old enough to make choices when it comes to sports.

Football is a physically punishing sport and your son, at 14, is still growing and developing. Many schools mandate an extra medical exam for younger players who want to move up to varsity, and I think this is necessary.

You are right that if your husband keeps pushing and pressuring your son, he may rebel and quit the team.

This is an age-old story between fathers and sons.

As the parent with the larger perspective, your job is to encourage both parties to try to see the big picture. Make sure your son realizes that he has the freedom to make his own choices, regardless of what his father wants, and let him know that you will always advocate for him.

My favorite movie detailing the triumph and tension of high school football is the ancient (1983) movie, “All the Right Moves,” starring an extremely young Tom Cruise. Cruise recently said he suffered a concussion while shooting a football scene in that film, underscoring the potential dangers of the sport.

BARI, Italy (AP) — Two missing American balloonists were plunging toward the Adriatic Sea at 50 mph when they dropped off air traffic control radar, a sign that they crashed and almost certainly were killed, organizers of the race they were competing in said Friday.

Flight director Don Cameron said that high rate of descent, if confirmed, leads him to be “very pessimistic” about the fate of veteran pilots Richard Abruzzo and Carol Rymer Davis.

The “only shred of hope” is that the readings from air traffic control in Zagreb, Croatia, were from the outer limits of its radar zone and might be incorrect, Cameron said. He added that he expects to confirm the data with Italian air traffic controllers in Brindisi, on the other side of the Adriatic, on Saturday.

Abruzzo, 47, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Davis, 65, of Denver, Colorado, were participating in the 54th Gordon Bennett Gas Balloon Race when contact was lost Wednesday morning in rough weather over the Adriatic.

Race organizers said the balloon “appears to have suffered a sudden and unexpected failure.”

My husband and I go to bed around 10 p.m.

We wake at around 5:30 a.m.

We have other children much younger than our son at home.

Initially, we requested 1 a.m. on the weekends and 10 p.m. on weeknights.

This lasted about a week.

Our son says he feels we are treating him as if he was still in high school and he cannot enjoy the college experience with our curfew.

What would you say is reasonable?

— Clockwatcher DEAR CLOCKWATCHER: Lately I’ve been asked to weigh in on curfew questions. I assume this is a result of the economy forcing more young adults to live with their folks.

You don’t say what curfew your son thinks is reasonable. His views on this are important because if you are able to negotiate this with him, he is more likely to adhere to your mutual decision.

You also don’t say what part of the “college experience” your son feels he is missing. Presumably he wants a little more time in the evening to burn the midnight oil at the campus library?

If he is able to return home after your bedtime without disturbing the rest of the household, I could see extending his weekday curfew to 11 p.m. and his Saturday curfew to 2 a.m. — but only if he is a present, pleasant and productive member of the household when he is home.

By the end of the semester, you all should be able to gauge his ability to juggle the various strands of his life.

Cameron said he received information Friday from Zagreb indicating the balloon was at 5,300 feet and descended slowly at first but then at a rate of 50 mph until 600 feet.

“At this rate of descent to the surface, survival would be unlikely,” the race organizers said in a statement.

The Italian coast guard, the U.S. Navy and Croatian coastal aircraft crews have been scouring the area around Croatia’s distant, uninhabited islet of Palagruza.

Abruzzo’s wife, Nancy, was in Bari at coast guard headquarters on Friday monitoring the search effort. She said her husband had made a final radio transmission saying he was preparing to ditch in the sea.

“We have every reason to believe that with his final transmission to air traffic that he would have had ... an adequate amount of time to prepare for an emergency sea landing which ... they are very prepared for,” she said in an interview via cell phone before race organizers learned about the air traffic control data.

In the Gordon Bennett race, teams compete to fly the farthest on a maximum of about 1,000 cubic meters (35,300 cubic feet) of gas. Abruzzo and Davis won the 2004 edition of

the race and the 2003 edition of the America’s Challenge, a competition Abruzzo has won five times in all.

Abruzzo is the son of famed balloonist Ben Abruzzo, who was in 1981 part of the first team to cross the Pacific Ocean by balloon, and who was killed in a small airplane crash in 1985.

“It’s in his blood,” Nancy Abruzzo said. “It’s who he is.”

The Italian coast guard was unaware of any final radio transmission, said spokesman Lt. Massimo Maccheroni. He said the coast guard merely received information about the last automatic signal the balloon communicated to the air traffic control center in Bridinsi before losing contact.

The balloons are designed specifically for racing, equipped with a satellite telephone, VHF radios, radar transponder and two mobile telephones. Most gas balloon racers — including Abruzzo and Davis — are hobbyists who spend thousands of dollars on the adventure sport.

The America’s Challenge, which is the U.S. version of the Gordon Bennett race, will go ahead as planned, a co-director said, adding that Abruzzo and Davis would want it that way.

R&B singer Bruno Mars faces cocaine charge

DEAR AMY: I hope you remind those wives whose husbands cannot be monogamous that they should be tested occasionally for sexually transmitted diseases.

This would truly be a valuable public service announcement.

— Williamsburg Nurse DEAR NURSE: I agree that anyone in a sexual relationship with a partner who is not monogamous should be tested for STDs. Thank you for this healthy reminder.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Bruno Mars, singer of the hit R&B song “Just the Way You Are,” faces a felony cocaine charge stemming from his arrest after a performance at a Las Vegas nightclub last month.

The Clark County district attorney’s office filed a criminal complaint Friday alleging the rising singer-songwriter had 2.6 grams of cocaine when he was arrested Sept. 19 after being detained by a hotel security guard.

Hernandez was taken to a holding cell, where he was questioned by an arresting officer. When asked what was going on, Hernandez replied: “Can I speak to you honestly, sir?” He said he acted foolishly and had never used drugs before, the arrest report said.

GRANITE QUARRY — Carson receiver Cody Clanton bounded Carson 49 into the air like an anteE. Rowan 0 lope to make a leaping second-quarter catch, and all night long he and his teammates played at a higher level than East Rowan.

Carson rolled 49-0 in the NPC matchup on Friday at East, tying the school record for points scored and racking up the most lopsided victory in school history.

“I’m pleased that we played so well on both sides of the ball,” Carson coach Mark Woody said. “I feel like we looked pretty good.

Carson set a school mark with 521 yards of offense in a 41-34 loss to Statesville last week, but that record lasted only seven days. Carson put up 560 against East.

Catawba opens SAC at Wingate; Livingstone holds Homecoming

BY RONNIE GALLAGHER rgallagher@salisburypost.com

Both of Salisbury’s college football teams have daunting tasks today.

Livingstone fans should enjoy Homecoming festivities, but will they enjoy the game between their winless Blue Bears (0-5, 0-2 CIAA) and high-powered Shaw?

Game time is 1 p.m.

Meanwhile, Catawba (2-1) winners of two straight, travels to Wingate (2-1) to open its South Atlantic conference season.

Game time is 1:30.

Nelson Woods is on track for another 1,000-yard season and Hester added, “They’ve got a good passing game to go with it, which puts your defense in a tough situation. You have to be fundamentally sound.”

Wingate handed Catawba a 42-17 home loss last season.

“They key to that game was they were able to run the football on us,” Hester said. “We had a hard time stopping them.”

In fact, the Bulldogs dominated.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Kasey Kahne and Paul Menard swept the front row in qualifying for Sunday’s race at Kansas Speedway, one of their last for Richard Petty Motorsports.

Kahne drove his Ford to a quick lap of 174.644 mph on Friday, earning his third pole of the season. Menard ran 174.469 mph on the 1.5-mile tri-oval. Both are leaving RPM after the season.

“To me it shows that myself and Paul and our teams are still really interested in running strong and not backing down just because we have other things we’re going to do in the future,” said Kahne, who will drive next year for Red Bull Racing. Menard will join Richard Childress Racing in 2011.

Jeff Gordon, who won the first two Cup races at Kansas Speedway in 2001 and 2002, qualified third at 174.430 in his Chevrolet. He was the highest qualifier among drivers in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

“Oh, man, I feel like I’m on the pole right now,” Gordon said after his first top-five effort since Pocono in August. “It’s been quite a while since we’ve qualified well. We’ve been trying really hard to qualify better, be-

cause I feel it’s been impacting our races.”

Points leader Denny Hamlin qualified 12th — but that was still nine spots better than four-time Cup winner Jimmie Johnson, who will start 21st. Johnson, whose win last week at Dover moved him up four KAHNE spots to second in the Chase standings, trails Hamlin by 35 points going into Sunday’s race.

Carl Edwards, who will start 31st, was the lowest-qualifying Chase driver. Three of his Roush Fenway Racing teammates — Greg Biffle, Matt Kenseth and David Ragan — all qualified in the top 10.

“I am frustrated because we were much faster than that in practice,” Edwards said.

Joey Logano was fourth, and followed by Biffle, Ryan Newman and Juan Pablo Montoya.

Kenseth qualified eighth, Kurt Busch was the highest-qualifying Dodge at ninth and Ragan rounded out the top 10.

Non-Chase drivers took six of the top 10 spots, while defending race champion Tony Stewart qualified 14th.

Indian tennis wins 2 From staff reports

Both Catawba tennis teams cruised to wins over visiting Belmont Abbey on Friday afternoon at the Johnson Tennis Center.

The Catawba women posted a 7-2 win to improve to 3-1, while the Catawba men took a 9-0 victory to stay undefeated at 3-0.

For the women, Steffi Cook and Ally Prior did not lose a game in claiming wins in both singles and doubles.

The men got singles and doubles wins from Pierce Hoover, Thomas Mitchell, Tom McCormack and Matthew Nicholson.

n Catawba volleyball Catawba rallied to pull out a five-game victory over host USC Aiken in volleyball action on Friday at Student Activities Center Gym. The Catawba Indians took the match 25-15, 19-25, 17-25, 25-21, 15-11 to even their mark at 6-6.

Shay Meeks led Catawba with 17 kills, and Kaitlyn Whitmer added 13 kills and 10 digs.

Libero Jenny Young registered 28 digs, setter Jordan Raye dished out 46 assists, and Anna Logan added eight kills and five blocks.

Catawba was down two games to one before rallying to win the pivotal fourth game with a late run.

Down 19-18, Whitmer tied it with a kill, and Logan put Catawba up 20-19 with an ace.

Whitmer added another kill and joined Emily Richardson for a combo block to push the lead to 23-19.

Whitmer’s kill provided the final point.

In the fifth game, Catawba jumped to a quick 5-0 lead on kills by Richardson and Whitmer and three USC Aiken attack errors.

USCA would close to within a point three times down the stretch, but kills by Whitmer, Logan and Meeks kept Catawba out front.

After Meeks’ kill for a 13-11 lead, Logan and MacKenzie White (Carson) combined on a block to give the Indians a match point.

Catawba finally won the game on an error

by USC Aiken.

The Indians surged to a 16-5 lead in the opening game and won easily.

Catawba led 19-17 in the second game, but Aiken reeled off the final eight points. The Pacers pulled away late to take Game 3.

LOCAL COLLEGES FROM 1C “We’re located pretty close,” Hester said.

“Both programs have had success. We’re having a lot of guys we recruit go to Wingate and vice-versa.”

Several local players will have homecomings for Wingate. West Rowan’s Austin Lowe starts on the offensive line and East Rowan’s Josh Patch starts on the defensive side.

Salisbury’s Joe So is a backup on the offensive line. Salisbury’s Phillip Hilliard is the punter. West’s Robert Kepley is a linebacker.

A.L. Brown’s Josh Moss is a DB and Colby Reid is a receiver.

“A lot of the guys know each other,” Hester said. “When you play against your brothers, sisters and cousins, you play awfully hard.”

Hester is excited to get the SAC portion of his schedule under way.

“These are the ones that really count,” he said. “Every game in our conference is going to be a battle.”

• At least one Shaw Bear will have a homecoming at Livingstone: defensive assistant Robert Massey, a former Blue Bear head coach.

But he’s now on a team that should contend for the CIAA title.

“They’re physical, they’re strong and they’re big,” Livingstone coach Elvin James.

“They’re probably one of the best teams in the CIAA. You don’t want them for Homecoming, but that’s the cards we’re dealt.”

More than Shaw (2-2, 0-1), James is concerned about his team. He looked out on the field during last week’s 27-6 loss to Saint Paul’s and noticed 16 freshmen out of 21 starters — including the entire offensive line. So he knows Shaw’s defenders are licking their lips.

“Defensively, they’re aggressive,” James said. “They’re going to blitz, blitz, blitz.”

Livingstone’s first-year quarterback Levon Stanley might be running for his life but running is what James wants.

“He has great feet,” James said. “We want him use them because he’s fast.”

After trying three different signal-callers, James is going to stick with Stanley.

“We’re going to ride him out instead of shuffling quarterbacks in,” James said. “Every time we do that we take a step back.”

James said that despite the winless season, his players have remained upbeat. He has worked this week on keeping them focused during Homecoming Week.

“With our campus so congested, we really have to be careful,” James said. “Everybody’s having a great time and they want to be out there. I told them, ‘The game’s at 1. After four hours you can go out and have a great time.’ ” And during those four hours on the field?

“If we don’t match their intensity,” James said, “they’ll run it up. But we’ll fight to the end.”

Braves fall

Chen gets first ML shutout Associated Press

Associated Press

ATLANTA — The stage is set for the 11 Braves to Phillies 5 honor BobBraves

by Cox. Jimmy Rollins and the Phillies took the first bow.

Rollins’ grand slam capped a five-run sixth inning and Philadelphia beat Atlanta 11-5 on Friday night to keep Cox and the Braves from moving closer to a wild-card berth.

The Phillies showed why they have the best record in the majors and are set to make a run at a third straight World Series appearance. With Rollins back in the lineup, the NL East champions had 13 hits and looked ready for the postseason.

“Things are working out pretty well,” manager Charlie Manuel said. “It never hurts to win.”

The Braves opened their final regular-season series two games ahead of San Diego in the wild-card race.

The Padres played later at NL West-leading San Fran-

cisco.

The loss left the Braves feeling the pressure.

“It’s do or die, really,” Eric Hinske said.

Rollins made his third start at shortstop since returning from a tight right hamstring.

“I felt pretty good,” he said. “My leg, I can push it if I have to. Defensively, I feel good.

“In a couple of days, the real fun starts,” he added.

“We want to go into the postseason with confidence.”

Ryan Howard had two hits, including a two-run single in a four-run eighth. Carlos Ruiz had three hits.

Rollins said Manuel won’t let the Phillies relax in their final regular-season series.

“You play baseball to win,” Rollins said. “Charlie’s not going to let anybody be complacent.”

Manuel said he “definitely might” stick with his regular lineup the next two games.

“That does not mean they will play the whole game,” he said.

AssociAted press

phillies star Jimmy rollins celebrates his grand slam in the win against Atlanta.

Atlanta has a tribute planned for Cox on Saturday. The Braves are trying to send their longtime manager into retirement with one final postseason appearance.

Some of Cox’s former players, including Andres Galarraga and Gerald Perry, arrived on Friday. A huge No. 6 — Cox’s uniform number — was cut in the centerfield grass.

Cox said before the game he could fully enjoy the tribute if the wild-card spot was secure. He won’t have that luxury.

“We need to win tomorrow,” Cox said.

The Major League roundup ...

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Bruce Chen threw a two-hitter for his first major league shutout Friday night, leading the Kansas City Royals to a 7-0 victory over Tampa Bay that dropped the Rays to second place in the AL East.

The Rays fell a half-game behind the New York Yankees, who were rained out in Boston. Tampa Bay has two games left with the last-place Royals, while the Yankees have to play three at Fenway Park.

Chen (12-7) struck out a season-high seven in his first complete game since April 15, 2005.

Blue Jays 6, Twins 3 MINNEAPOLIS — Edwin Encarnacion’s three-run homer highlighted Toronto’s four-run eighth inning against Minnesota.

Kevin Gregg earned his 37th save.

Angels 5, Rangers 4, 11 innings ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Juan Rivera homered twice, including a tiebreaking drive in the 11th, and Los Angeles beat Texas despite the return of Rangers slugger Josh Hamilton.

Indians 7, White Sox 3 CHICAGO — Shin-Soo Choo hit a tworun homer, Fausto Carmona pitched six strong innings and Cleveland extended its season-best winning streak to seven games with a victory over Chicago.

Orioles 10, Tigers 6, 1st game Orioles 2, Tigers 1, 2nd game BALTIMORE — Jeremy Guthrie al-

lowed two hits over eight shutout innings, Nick Markakis homered and Baltimore beat Detroit for a doubleheader sweep.

NATIONAL LEAGUE CINCINNATI— Casey McGehee hit a grounder off Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips in the 11th inning, driving in Corey Hart and sending the Milwaukee Brewers to a 4-3 victory Friday night that ensured Cincinnati will begin the postseason on the road.

Cubs 2, Astros 0 HOUSTON — Casey Coleman pitched seven strong innings and drove in a run, leading the Chicago Cubs to a 2-0 win over the Houston Astros.

Mets 2, Nationals 1, 10 innings NEW YORK — With the New York Mets braced for a management shakeup, Josh Thole homered in the 10th inning Friday night to begin the final series of the season with a 2-1 victory.

Cardinals 3, Rockies 0 ST. LOUIS — Jake Westbrook matched his career high with nine strikeouts and got his first RBI of the season in the St. Louis Cardinals’ 3-0 victory over the outof-gas Colorado Rockies.

Pirates 5, Marlins 1 MIAMI — Chris Snyder and surging rookie Pedro Alvarez homered to lead the Pittsburgh Pirates past the Florida Marlins 5-1 on Friday night.

It was a rare road victory for the Pirates, who improved to 17-62 away from home.

Twins call foul on T-Wolves’ billboard Associated Press

Ryder Cup washed out Associated Press

NEWPORT, Wales — Ryder Cup officials have rearranged the schedule to try and finish the matches on Sunday after rain washed away more than seven hours of play on Friday.

The new schedule calls for six alternate shot matches in the second session instead of the normal four, and two alternate shot and four better ball matches in the third session. That means all players will be out on the course for both sessions.

“It’s going to be long day with so many players out there,” Europe’s Rory McIlroy said. “Stamina will be important because the ground is so heavy.”

The Americans at least felt as though they had some momentum.

Trailing in three of the four matches when play was halted, Woods made a clutch par to keep from falling two holes down, and he and Steve Stricker won consecutive holes for their first lead until Poulter made his birdie in the dark.

Stewart Cink, the guy U.S. captain Corey Pavin forgot to introduce at the opening ceremony, was impossible to miss on the golf course by making one big putt after

another. He and Matt Kuchar took a 2-up lead over U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell and Rory McIlroy through 11 holes.

The American rookies were just as relentless.

Bubba Watson and Jeff Overton won the first two holes with birdies before the rain, and they were 1-up on Luke Donald and Padraig Harrington. The Americans already have a birdie on the par-5 ninth hole, and Donald will have a chance to halve the hole with a 6-foot putt when they return today.

If nothing else, it gave the U.S. team time to do a little shopping in the merchandise tent in yet another embarrassing moment.

The Americans looked soaked in their navy blue rain suits with white stripes, and there was a reason for that — they didn’t work.

Pavin never explained why it took until Friday at the Ryder Cup to figure this out, or what specifically was wrong with them.

“My suit was fine. I had no problems — but I wasn’t playing,” Pavin said. “They just didn’t perform the way they were supposed to perform, and so we just went out and bought some more, simple as that.”

NO SMOKING, PLEASE CINCINNATI — The Cincinnati Health Department will conduct an inspection of the Great American Ball Park and the Reds’ clubhouse after at least five people called a state hotline, complaining that when Reds players lighted up celebratory cigars after they clinched the NL Central it violated Ohio’s smoking ban.

Department spokesman Rocky Merz said Friday that state law requires such an inspection after five

COLLEGE HOOPS LEXINGTON, Ky. — Kentucky freshman center Enes Kanter must sit out all team activities until the NCAA determines his amateur status.

The 6-foot-11 Kanter played on a club team in Turkey in 2008-09. The NCAA is reviewing whether Kanter received any extraordinary benefits during his time with the team, which would be a violation of the NCAA’s amateur policy.

WRONG NUMBER CINCINNATI — Charity-minded callers are getting intercepted by a phone-sex line because of a typo on Chad Ochocinco’s Cereal boxes.

The phone number is supposed to connect callers to Feed the Children, which benefits from sales of the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver’s cereal. But the box has the wrong tollfree prefix, meaning callers get a seductive-sounding woman who makes risque suggestions and then asks for a credit card number.

Cincinnati-based Kroger Co. said it was pulling all Ochocinco cereal boxes from its grocery.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Clint Bowyer has no faith his championship-ending penalty will be overturned by NASCAR’s version of the Supreme Court.

He’s accepted that he’s got zero chance at winning the Sprint Cup title this season.

He’s not given up on his teammates, though.

Bowyer returned to home track Kansas Speedway on Friday eager to put the drama surrounding his illegal car from New Hampshire behind him and focus on helping one of his Richard Childress Racing teammates win the title.

“The championship hopes are done for myself. The thing that I have to do is be the best teammate I can be,” Bowyer said. “We have to bring a championship home. We still have two shots at that.”

NASCAR docked Bowyer 150 points because the car he drove to victory Sept. 11 at

New Hampshire failed inspection, and an appeals committee this week denied RCR’s bid to have the penalties overturned. Team owner Richard Childress has one last chance, an Oct. 5 hearing before NASCAR chief appellate officer, John Middlebrook.

Bowyer thinks the boss is wasting his time.

“I’ve told Richard it’s not worth fighting,” Bowyer said.

“In my opinion, their minds are made up. It is what it is and if you want to be a part of this great thing we call a sport, you better just go on and enjoy what it is.”

And that’s exactly what Bowyer plans to do this weekend at Kansas.

He grew up in Emporia, about 90 minutes southwest of the Kansas track, and has spent this week in his homestate catching up with friends, family and fans. It was a welcome reprieve from the controversy that’s ruined his season.

The last driver to claim a

spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field, his win at New Hampshire rocketed him from 12th to second in the standings, only 35 points behind leader Denny Hamlin. But as quickly as he climbed into the championship race, he was out of it.

Bowyer and Childress were each docked 150 points, crew chief Shane Wilson was fined $150,000 and suspended six races, and car chief Chad Haney was suspended six races.

What was likely the high point of Bowyer’s NASCAR career was ruined in a span of 72 hours.

“That’s an emotional roller coaster that nobody wants to ride, trust me,” he said. “This is a very humbling sport.”

It contributed to Bowyer’s poor showing last weekend at Dover, where he finished 25th and admitted Friday “our heads weren’t 100 percent in the game.”

GOLF MADISON, Miss. — Brendon de Jonge and Bill Haas each shot 66 to lead the Viking Classic.

HHURLBURT FIELD, Fla. — LeBron James came down the court, headed toward the baseline and made a nifty behind-the-back pass to rookie center Dexter Pittman near the basket.

That’s when he — and the rest of the Miami Heat — saw what having James as a teammate can mean.

The NBA’s two-time reigning MVP slammed Pittman’s miss home, one of many moments that left guests from the U.S. Air Force howling when the Heat held their first full preseason MARIOTTI UPDATE scrimmage Friday night.

MINNEAPOLIS — Score one for the struggling Minnesota Timberwolves over the playoff-bound Twins.

The Timberwolves have already admitted they probably won’t do much winning this season, but they’re not short on business acumen: The NBA team has installed a giant billboard on their arena that will be hard to miss for anyone watching the Twins’ home playoff games next week.

Renderings provided by the Wolves show the ad space on the outside of Target Center will dominate the view from the third-baseline seats at the Twins’ Target Field, as well as from Target Plaza outside the ballpark. It’s the same vantage point of downtown Minneapolis that Sports Illustrated recently chose for a cover story on the Twins.

The Twins are fuming, but powerless to stop it.

Team president Dave St. Peter called it “an ambush” and said the size of the billboard was “shocking.”

Timberwolves president Chris Wright said he was surprised the Twins are so upset. The Wolves fought and won a court battle with the operator of their arena earlier this year over the right to sell the exterior ad space.

“It was more a question of when we would do it rather than if we would do it,” he said, adding the Wolves have been happy to see their baseball counterparts so successful in their new stadium, and called it “a shame they would begrudge us” making use of the ad space.

complaints about the indoor smoking were phoned in.

Don’t expect much to come of the inspection. Merz says further action is “highly unlikely.” He says the department realizes “everyone was celebrating” the victory and wishes the Reds well.

North’s Jarvis Witherspoon abruptly crashed that party and dislodged the ball, sending it flopping to the turf.

Hargrave grabbed the ball like it was a late-night snack and motored 37 yards into the end zone.

“All week we’ve been practicing our scoop play,” Hargrave said. “Instead of just diving on loose balls, we worked on picking it up and running with it.”

Two minutes later Hargrave was back in the spotlight.

East’s next possession led to a fourth-and-16 punt attempt by Omar Jamies from the goal line. North’s Darius Jackson broke through a block and rejected the kick — parachuting the ball into the end where Hargrave zone, pounced on it for a 13-0 lead.

The festivities were just beginning for North, though Fleming was displeased with the Cavs’ first-quarter performance.

“We had a very sloppy and disorganized first quarter,” he said. “Too many penalties, too many mistakes. We had the turnover bug and the penalty bug. I thought we settled down by the middle of the second quarter offensively and defensively played well all night.”

The defense faltered late in the first period when East Montgomery scored its touchdown on a 13-yard pass from Reynolds to sophomore Michael Conrad.

Two plays earlier came a jon c. lakey/SALISBURY POST significant 47-yard burst by North Rowan’s Darius Jackson (11) grabs East Montgomery’s tailback Chris Everette, who finished with 108 hard-earned Chris Everette (22).

North responded with the game’s pivotal sequence.

After making one of its five fumble recoveries — this one at the East 25-yard line with 6:07 remaining in the half — the Cavaliers drove for a short-field score that deflated the guests.

Quarterback T.J. Allen, who passed for 135 yards, alternated handoffs to Malik Jones and Terry Allen before swinging a 12-yard touchdown pass to Bates on the right side.

“It was just a 5-yard-out,” said Bates, a 170-pound senior with three TDs this season.

“Somebody had me, but I knew I had to find my way into the end zone.”

Fleming has seen it before.

“Amani is very good at getting yards after the catch,” Fleming said. “He caught that ball in the backfield and got the last 13 yards on his own by running hard.”

That’s exactly what North has done in YVC play the past two weeks.

“We’re setting the tempo,” Hargrave said. “We came out tonight and wanted to kill them. No one was holding back. It may have been a surprise, but we knew we could do it. Nobody’s played anybody like us yet.”

WEST FROM 8C

jon c. lakey/SALISBURY POST

Carson quarterback Zack Gragg broke the school record for passing yards in a game with a 233-yard performance against East Rowan.

CARSON FROM 1C loss. “They’re good. Their line comes off the ball, and Warren makes good cuts.”

East doesn’t have gamebreakers such as Warren and Clanton, so coach Chad Tedder’s gameplan was ball-control.

East has size and used serious clock on its first possession. It got a 12-yard run from Chris Moore for a first down and smashed its way into Carson territory. But on thirdand-8 from the Carson 39, with Chris Barnhardt and Ryan Shoaf in hot pursuit, East quarterback Jamey Blalock slipped to the grass for a 6yard loss.

East punted to the Carson 15, but lousy field position doesn’t mean much when you’ve got Warren. After Gragg found Clanton with a third-down pass that moved the sticks, Warren bolted 61 yards for a touchdown.

“Our guys blocked it up, and there was really no one there to stop me,” Warren said. “Coach told me this week how it was in the newspaper I was up there in the leaders in the nation.

That feels great, but I’ll stay level-headed and try to come out and do it every single Friday.”

East managed two first downs on its second possession, and a nice punt by Jantzen Stirewalt backed Carson up to its 6.

Undaunted, the Cougars quickly rolled 94 yards. Clanton got loose for a 48-yard catch to the East 11, and sophomore K.J. Pressley caught the first TD pass of his career two

plays later. Caleb Lippard kicked one of his seven PATs early in the second quarter, and it was 14-0.

“The gameplan to throw a lot was working and we stuck with it,” Clanton said. “It seems like every time Shaun has a huge game (Warren rushed for 308 yards against Statesville), teams really concentrate on stopping him and it gives me a chance to have a good game.

I’ve been double-covered the last three weeks. It was basically one guy tonight (East’s Wesley LeRoy was the guy on an island against Clanton), and that was nice to see.”

East had to score on its next possession to make things interesting.

Blalock passed to Shawn Galloway for a 22-yard gain, East’s biggest play of the night, to provide hope. An 8-yard run by Max Allen followed, with a Carson 15-yard penalty tacked on.

That flag handed East a first down at the Carson 19.

Then methodical East opted for a rare attempt at trickery — a reverse — and didn’t get the execution Tedder was looking for. A fumble resulted. Carson’s Micah Honeycutt alertly scooped up the ball.

“We had Carson on the run a little bit there and we were sure a reverse on first down would surprise them,” Tedder said.

“If we score there, it might have changed the game, but we didn’t score. That’s been the story of our season. We’re plugging along, our kids are trying hard, but we’ve just got to make some plays.”

Carson marched to make it 21-0 after Honeycutt’s recovery. That was the halftime score. It was nearly 28-0 at the break, but Clanton fumbled near the East goal line after

Carson’s K.J. Pressley (10) had a big game against East Rowan. The sophomore had five catches. making a catch in stride down the middle. Evan Hiatt jarred the ball loose from the longstriding receiver, and LeRoy fell on it in the end zone.

East also got a fumble recovery on special teams from Dalton Moose, but it couldn’t make anything positive happen.

Carson got touchdowns from Jacorian Brown, Warren, Clanton and soph Travis Abbitt after halftime, and the Cougars’ fired-up defense dominated, holding East to fewer than 100

yards for the game.

“We had a tough loss last week and we could have had a letdown tonight because this was a new situation for all our kids,” Woody said. “We told our defensive guys not to take last week personally, it was just three or four plays that got us, but I think they did take it personally.”

Shoaf had two stops for loss.

Barnhardt had two sacks. Honeycutt, Garrett Smith and T.J. Smith were also in on sacks.

A pair of first-quarter touchdowns by Desmond Jackson produced a lead that grew to 20-0 on Dinkin Miller’s 2-yard run with 4:13 left in the third quarter West Iredell’s Sayer Robinson threw a 79-yard touchdown pass to C.J. Gibbs on the next play from scrimmage, and the Warriors drew within 20-14 when Kamron Summers hauled in a fourthdown pass for a 25-yard TD with 4:35 left.

West Iredell, which had forced three consecutive three-and-outs by stuffing the Falcons’ ground game, elected to go for an onsides kick.

The ball took a high hop, and West Rowan’s Emmanuel Gbunblee GBUNBLEE made a leaping catch from the front line.

“In that situation we were going to be aggressive,” West Iredell coach Mark Weycker said. “We spend a lot of time on special teams, and we felt like we could make things happen. We had some momentum at that point, and we wanted to get the football back.”

The 215-pound Sherrill took a shotgun snap on first down from midfield and faked a handoff to Miller before darting up the middle.

He worked his way toward the right sideline, avoided being tackled inside the 10 and stretched out near the rightfront pylon.

“If you play B.J. in anything, you’ll have a tough time beating him,” Young said.

“He’s just got that great sense about him. It got tight and we knew we needed a big play. It took him one play to make that big play.”

West Rowan’s winning streak began when Sherrill became the YOUNG full-time starter in the third game of the 2008 season.

He had a 52-yard touchdown run in the first of the Falcons’ two state championship victories but is known more for a right arm that’s accounted for 45 touchdown passes.

“All along I’ve felt like I can do a lot of things with my legs, but I just rely on my arm most of the time,” said Sherrill, who threw for 88 yards. “Every now and then I surprise people when I take off running.”

West Iredell, with help from a personal foul, started its next drive at the Falcons’ 35. Intentional grounding backed up the Warriors (3-3, 1-1 NPC), and Robinson dropped back to throw from near midfield on fourth down.

M a s h o r e , w h o s e 7 5 - yard punt return set up West Rowan’s second touchdown of the game, came up with an interception at the Falcons’ 34 and followed a convoy of blockers down the left sideline.

“We just kept our composure and answered like a championship-caliber team,” Mashore said.

Mashore reappeared in the starting lineup after missing West Rowan’s conference opener.

He was in a local hospital from Wednesday of last week until Friday afternoon after learning he has Type 1 diabetes, which occurs when the pancreas doesn’t produce enough insulin to properly control blood sugar levels.

Mashore lost 20 pounds during his time away from the field, and his return paid immediate dividends for the Falcons.

“It helped fire up my teammates,” Mashore said. “I just wanted to have a good game my first game back.”

Mashore also had a 37-yard punt return for the Falcons, who finished with three interceptions. Two came off deflections, including Kendall Hosch’s end-zone pick with 7:02 remaining as the Warriors made their first attempt to slice into a 20-7 deficit.

On West Iredell’s opening possession of the game, linebacker Quentin Sifford batted a pass high into the air while in coverage. The ball bounced around before settling into defensive back Domonique Noble’s hands for an interception at the Falcons’ 40, and West Rowan responded with a 12-play drive that ended with Jackson’s touchdown run on fourth-and-goal from the 1.

Jackson, benefiting from receiver Jamarian Mabry’s downfield block, scored on an 11-yard pass from Sherrill in the final minute of the first quarter.

The margin increased but wasn’t comfortable for a team that had allowed only 14 points in its first six games.

“If you’re a championship-type team, you’re going to have to win the ugly games,” Sherrill said. “It was sort of ugly, but seniors stepped up and made big plays. It worked out for the good.”

Max Allen (8) takes a pitch from East Rowan quarterback Jamey Blalock.

Wilson ran backwards 20 yards and stopped on a dime, and darted up the right sideline for a 39-yard touchdown.

The tide turned following that play for South Rowan.

McDaniel would add two more touchdown runs, a 20-yard burst and a 5-yard rush, giving South a comfortable lead.

South Rowan’s defense played lights out, aside from Ramseur’s runs, forcing two fumbles and also picking off a pass.

A.L. BROWN FroM 8c in a 28-point third-quarter blitz that turned a tie game into a runaway.

“In the first half, we didn’t really have our minds right and weren’t ready to play,” Campbell said. “They came out and gave us a fight and that was a wakeup call for us at halftime.

We realized we had to come out here and play Kannapolis football.”

Kannapolis football on defense is about forcing turnovers and the Wonders recorded six in the game, including three in the third quarter which led to 21 points. It was a reversal of the first half when Brown fumbles led to both Central touchdowns.

“The second half they turned the football over and we didn’t,” Massey said.

The domination startTE. JONES ed less than a minute into the second half when Central quarterback Jarod Garrick was hit near his own goal line and fumbled.

Linebacker Quin Gill recovered the ball in the back of the end zone for the touchdown to put the Wonders ahead 21-14.

Later in the period, Brown’s offense struck for three touchdowns in a span of less than three minutes.

Campbell hit Keeon Johnson over the middle for a 29-yard score, and after a fumble recovery by line-

man Jericho Rivers, Damien Washington flew around right end for a 22yard scoring run.

Safety Kaleel Hollis then made an easy interception on Central’s next possession. One play later, Teven Jones caught an 18-yard pass from Campbell in the back of the end zone to make it 42-14 with 3:06 left in the quarter.

Jones also had a 53-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter, finishing with three catches for 81 yards.

“The offensive line did an amazing job tonight of giving me a lot of time and we like our matchups with our wide receivers,” Campbell said. “They’re great athletes and I like our chances against anybody so we were able to make some plays in the passing game

Demetrius Jackson added a 32-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter and R.J. Gill’s 20-yard run with under two minutes left capped the scoring.

Jackson (12 carries for 160 yards) had given the Wonders a quick lead with a 62-yard score on the third play of the game.

But that was one of the few things Brown did well in the first half.

Its next series began with two shotgun snaps sailing past Campbell — one was well over his head.

Campbell recovered both of them, but the Wonders fumbled four more times — including another on the snap — before the first quarter ended, and lost all of those.

“We just didn’t execute,” Massey said. “Field conditions shouldn't matter. I

After Jones’ touchdown midway through quarter tied it, Central had a chance to go back ahead right before halftime, but stalled on downs at the Brown 2.

Each team fumbled seven times and lost five in the game. Central had four in the second half while also being held without a single first down.

The Wonders probably can’t afford the same sloppiness next week against improved Cox Mill.

“I thought last week we did an excellent job coming out and this week we didn’t,” Massey said.

“Maybe it was going on the road. You never know. If I knew how 16, 17-year old kids were going to react, I’d write a book and be a billionaire. It’s different every week.”

The NFL this week ...

Donovan McNabb can expect some good vibes from the folks in the City of Brotherly Love before his Washington Redskins take on the Eagles on Sunday.

Once they kick off, though, Michael Vick will be the local hero and McNabb simply another visiting quarterback the fans in the Linc want to see planted into the turf.

McNabb’s outgoing personality, infectious smile and thrilling unpredictability were fine in Philly while he was winning, and he did a lot of winning in his 11 seasons as an Eagle. McNabb was 92-49-1 in the regular season and the Eagles won nine of his 16 playoff games. The problem: None of those postseason victories came in a Super Bowl, and four of the losses were in NFC championship games.

Dealt away — to a division rival, no less — in April, McNabb returns with the Redskins (1-2) on a two-game slide.

He’s performed well enough for Washington, but not nearly at the level Vick has played in leading the NFC in passing.

So what does McNabb expect?

“Hopefully cheers,” he says. “You wouldn’t expect me to say I am going to get booed, do you? The past 11 years have been great and thing that is one that you just can’t forget.”

The QB doing the most to the opposition in this matchup has been Vick.

Vick, who has supplanted Kevin Kolb as McNabb’s successor and has the Eagles (2-1) atop the NFC East, owes plenty to McNabb. When Vick was signed by Philadelphia last year after being reinstated to the league — he missed two years while serving 18 months in federal prison for dogfighting — McNabb was among his staunchest supporters.

“I hope it’s a positive reaction,” Vick says of how the fickle Philly fans will greet McNabb. “I hope it’s a great reaction and maybe a standing ovation. I think that will be great. Donovan sacrificed a lot for this organization and took them to the playoffs plenty of times and made an appearance in the Super Bowl. He put in his work.”

Also Sunday, it’s Baltimore at Pittsburgh; Indianapolis at Jacksonville; Carolina at New Orleans; Detroit at Green Bay; Chicago at the New York Giants in a night game; Arizona at San Diego; the New York Jets at Buffalo; San Francisco at Atlanta; Denver at

Central (0-6, 0-2) took advantage on a pair of touchdown passes by Garrick, who was subbing for injured starter Jamaal Klugh. Receiver Aaron Johnson caught both of them, including a 55-yarder that came off a tipped ball.

Michael Vick, left, and donovan McNabb were philly teammates last season.

Tennessee; Cincinnati at Cleveland; Houston at Oakland; and Seattle at St. Louis. On Monday night, Miami hosts New England.

Baltimore (2-1) at Pittsburgh (3-0) Anyone who likes brutal, in-thetrenches football needs to pay attention to this AFC North confrontation.

The Steelers’ defense has resembled the best versions of the Steel Curtain, and an unbeaten record before Ben Roethlisberger returns from a fourgame suspension is within reach.

Indianapolis (2-1) at Jacksonville (1-2) Here’s an ominous thought: Peyton Manning is off to the best start of his 13-year career, which already includes an unprecedented four MVP awards.

For the first time, he has three straight games with at least 300 yards passing AND three TD throws. With the emergence of Austin Collie, Manning’s receiver corps is as deep and versatile as ever, particularly if Pierre Garcon and Anthony Gonzalez get healthy.

Carolina (0-3) at New Orleans (2-1) Just what the Panthers need after their second successive 0-3 start: a trip to the Superdome against the defending league champions who come off blowing a game to Atlanta.

Detroit (0-3) at Green Bay (2-1) Can any team be angrier with itself than the Packers, who set a club record with 18 penalties on Monday night in handing the game to their archrival, the Bears? Don’t look for Green Bay to be so inept or charitable again, but the Packers do need to find a running game.

So far, they have gained 759 yards in the air and a paltry 286 on the ground.

Chicago (3-0) at New York Giants (1-2) Chicago is doing plenty defensively.

The NFC’s only unbeaten team, the Bears are first against the run and, in DE Julius Peppers, have added a gamechanger to LBs Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs.

Arizona (2-1) at San Diego (1-2) Struggling division winners from

2009 who have undergone massive roster shifts and been damaged by them.

New York Jets (2-1) at Buffalo (0-3) At least the Bills didn’t send Trent Edwards over Niagara Falls in a barrel. They did cut the man who began the season as their starting QB — he’s now in Jacksonville — and added to the spiraling sensation in Buffalo.

San Francisco (0-3) at Atlanta (2-1) The Falcons are soaring after their overtime victory in New Orleans. With the Browns up next week, this is a good time to make strides, something their defense must do for Atlanta to be a true championship contender. The offense, especially NFC receiving leader Roddy White and tight end Tony Gonzalez, looks dynamic.

Denver (1-2) at Tennessee (2-1) It took the Titans until Nov. 8 to win their second game a year ago. They were somewhat gifted No. 2 by the Giants last weekend, but they got RB Chris Johnson back on track. The Titans’ secondary will be challenged by the top passing attack, yardage-wise, in the league.

Cincinnati (2-1) at Cleveland (0-3) Another defeat, close or otherwise, might send the Mangini countdown into orbit. Browns coach Eric Mangini says he sees progress, but if Cleveland doesn’t get some Ws to go along with it, he soon could be watching future progress from elsewhere.

Houston (2-1) at Oakland (1-2) Were the Texans exposed by Dallas last week, or was it just too big a stage for a developing team? A misstep in the Black Hole would bring out all the doubters.

Seattle (2-1) at St. Louis (1-2) After grabbing their first win of the season — it took St. Louis until Nov. 1 to manage a victory in 2009 — the Rams probably will need Steven Jackson in the lineup to have a shot at two in a row. The standout running back is day to day with a groin strain.

Alabama-Florida: Battle of SEC reigning powers Associated Press

Today’s Top 25 previews ...

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — It’s still comfortably warm most days in the Deep South, and already topranked Alabama and No. 7 Florida are set to tangle in a battle of the Southeastern Conference’s reigning powers.

The timing and scene are different than usual, and so is the scenario. Rub out all the hype and anticipation, and you’re left with a huge SEC game that won’t really settle much of anything.

The loser of Saturday night’s clash at Bryant-Denny Stadium presumably won’t be knocked out of the national championship picture, and the winner earns no guarantees — unlike the past two SEC championship games.

It’s big, just not point-of-no-return big.

“The timing of the game is a little bit different, but it’s still very important,” Crimson Tide quarterback Greg McElroy said. “Obviously without a victory on Satur-

day, we’re going to have a harder time getting to where we want to be.”

Well, not necessarily. The Gators (4-0, 2-0 SEC) and Tide (4-0, 1-0) still could meet for the league title.

“The last several years, it seems like these two teams find ways to win games,” Florida coach Urban Meyer said. “We better be locked and loaded. Everybody has to be on point. All-in is something we talk about. Everybody has to be all-in, that means everybody has to have excellence to have a chance to go win this game.”

If both teams were to win their remaining games — hardly a sure thing in a league with five teams ranked in the top 15 — that’s exactly what will happen. Now, that game could be for a national championship shot.

And there likely won’t be a bigger challenge in between. These two teams have made a habit of winning big games the past few years and accounted for the past two national champions, though Al-

RALEIGH — North Carolina State’s showdown with Virginia Tech is shaping up just as many in the preseason figured it might.

One team is nationally ranked, undefeated and tops in the ACC. The other is clawing back after a discouraging start.

Here’s the twist — it’s the No. 23 Wolfpack who are flying high.

The roles have reversed in Raleigh, where N.C. State (4-0, 1-0) puts its best start since 2002 on the line today in its toughest test so far, the preseason league favorite Hokies (2-2, 1-0).

“I hope (the strong start) gives them a little bit of confidence, because they’ve been having success and they’ve been doing things the right way, the way we want them to do it,” Wolfpack coach Tom O’Brien said. “So there’s some validation there, not only for us but for them, to understand we’ve done it this way and if you’re going to have a chance to succeed, you’re going to have to continue to do it this way.

“The ranking, that’s good, because it’s a recognition of what they’ve done the last month,” he added, “but it really has nothing to do with the game.”

The Wolfpack, the only remaining unbeaten in the ACC, will play their first game as a ranked team since Philip Rivers was a senior in 2003. Russell Wilson orchestrates the league’s top passing offense, averaging 289 yards, and the dual-threat redshirt junior certainly looks like the conference’s best player so far.

Still, a win over the Hokies would be an upset only according to the Top 25 rankings. Las Vegas has Tech as a 4-point favorite.

“Right now, they’re definitely a high-powered team as a whole,” Virginia Tech tight end Andre Smith said.

CHAPEL HILL— No one would blame North Carolina freshman Kareem Martin for feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Pressed into front-line duty due to an ongoing NCAA investigation, the defensive end has seen Georgia Tech’s triple-option attack, as well as multiple and prostyle offenses from LSU and Rutgers. Now the Tar Heels are again getting something different today: East Carolina’s spread offense, imported from Texas Tech along with new Pirates coach Ruffin McNeill and offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley.

“We haven’t been using the same technique any of the weeks,” Martin said, “so it’s been a little tough adjusting to coming off the triple-option ... to this air attack where we’re coming off the ball and going after the quarterback. So it’s been kind of tough.”

The Tar Heels (1-2) are again missing numerous key players on defense due to the review, including NFL prospects Marvin Austin, Robert Quinn, Kendric Burney and Deunta Williams. But the Pirates (2-1) have their own defensive concerns heading into an instate rivalry game, namely whether an inexperienced unit that lost nine starters and has ranked among the nation’s worst while implementing a new system can improve.

“We’re at the point now where being young isn’t an excuse anymore,” ECU linebacker Melvin Patterson said.

Both offenses figure to be ahead of those defenses. North Carolina has been far more efficient moving the football than last season behind four-year starter T.J. Yates at quarterback, though turnovers have plagued the Tar Heels through the first three games.

WINSTON-SALEM — Jim Grobe wants his Wake Forest team to get back to playing sound, solid football.

Georgia Tech’s Paul Johnson knows how he feels.

Both teams will look to snap out of their recent funks tonight when Grobe’s Demon Deacons play host to the Yellow Jackets.

Neither team has played as well as its coach would like lately.

Georgia Tech (2-2, 1-1 ACC) has dropped two of three, prompting Johnson to urge his team to play “like we’re upset at somebody,” while Wake Forest (2-2, 1-1) has lost two in a row by a combined score of 99-24.

“There are not a lot of good things that come from losing. Period,” Grobe said.

“Whether you’re young or old, whether you’ve got an old, veteran team or a lot of young guys. ...

I think we’ve got to improve quite a bit to get a win.”

Defending ACC champ Georgia Tech last week ran into the league’s hottest team — unbeaten North Carolina State — while the Demon Deacons will face their third straight star quarterback in Joshua Nesbitt. He surely will look to carve up their leaky defense on the ground just as Stanford’s Andrew Luck and Florida State’s Christian Ponder did through the air.

“I think we have a great quarterback coming in this week, but you don’t compare him to the other two simply because of the style of (Tech’s ground-based) offense,” Grobe said.

“It’s murderer’s row for us because of the quarterback deal. ... You feel like you’re not a very good team, but then you’ve kind of got to check yourself and remember who you’ve been playing.”

COLLEGE PARK, Md. — It’s all there for Maryland: A chance to double its win total of last year, open ACC play with a victory and then savor everything during a bye week.

The only thing the Terrapins must do is defeat Duke on Saturday night.

“To be 4-1 going into the break, we’d have some momentum,” Maryland coach Ralph Friedgen said. “Hopefully we can get healed up a little bit going into the last half of the season. I think going in there 4-1, we’d be feeling good.”

Maryland completed the non-conference portion of its schedule by beating Florida International 42-28 last week.

“In the long run,” defensive lineman A.J. Francis said, “3-1 is a good place to be.”

It sure beats where Duke is: 1-3 and coming off a 35-21 loss at home to Army.

The game was not unlike Duke’s lone foray into the ACC thus far, an ugly 54-48 defeat at Wake Forest in which the Blue Devils gave up 500 yards and committed four turnovers.

Cutcliffe blames Duke’s poor start surrendering too many big plays on defense and committing too many turnovers on offense.

“If we minimize both of those, playing not much different than we play, we would have the chance to have a different record,” he said.

This would be an ideal week to test that theory, because Duke’s weaknesses are Maryland’s strengths. The Terps scored on four plays of at least 50 yards against FIU and have 27 plays of at least 20 yards this season.

Maryland has forced an ACC-high 10 turnovers and boasts a plus-6 differential.

CLEMSON, S.C. — Miami hasn’t forgotten its upset loss to Clemson last year — or what it did to the Hurricanes’ plans for getting back on top.

No. 16 Miami (2-1) hopes not to repeat that today when it opens ACC play at Clemson.

Cornerback Ryan Hill remembers watching the 40-37 overtime loss from home because he was injured and knew the impact it could have on the Hurricanes’ goals. “It was a tough loss, probably one of the losses that kept us out of the BCS game,” Hill said. “That’s going to be in the back of our mind.”

The Hurricanes already let a chance to stamp themselves as national contenders slip away in a 3624 loss to No. 2 Ohio State. They rebounded a game later, routing Pittsburgh 31-3. Now the team heads into one of the ACC’s most difficult venues with a championship chip on their shoulders — one knocked off by Clemson (2-1) a year ago.

Miami seemed to have everything going its way when these teams met in 2009. The ’Canes were ranked eighth in the country. Yet, they could not contain Tigers star C.J. Spiller or first-year passer Kyle Parker.

Spiller finished with a school-record 310 all-purpose yards, including a 90-yard kickoff return score right before halftime that gave the Tigers confidence they could hang with Miami.

Parker had a careerhigh 326 yards and three touchdowns, the last a walk-off laser to wide receiver Jacoby Ford for the 26-yard game winner.

“For me it did a lot, and it did a lot for our team,” Parker said. “We can remember it a little bit but then have to forget about it when we come out because that’s probably some good motivation for them, too.”

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — A lot has changed — including both head coaches — at Virginia and Florida State in the four years since the Cavaliers and Seminoles last met in football.

The Seminoles (3-1, 1-0 ACC), under first-year coach Jimbo Fisher, will be unranked for just the second time in 16 meetings when the Atlantic Coast Conference rivals play Saturday.

Nonetheless, Virginia sees the same old Seminoles, led by a Heisman Trophy contender in dual-threat quarterback Christian Ponder. Their defense leads the nation in sacks with 19 and figures to significantly challenge the Cavaliers.

“You want to make sure that you don’t go backwards,” said firstyear coach Mike London London.

The Cavaliers also want to be sure that if quarterback Marc Verica is being pressured, he isn’t rushed into an interception.

Virginia (2-1) has been something of a surprise, beating Richmond and VMI — both of the Football Championship Subdivision — and losing 17-14 at No. 18 Southern Cal. To many, the USC result was the biggest surprise, but the players say otherwise.

“Right now the confidence is as high as I’ve seen it since I’ve been here, and I’ve been here for four years,” Cavaliers left tackle Landon Bradley said this week.

“Everybody’s excited and we can’t wait to play on Saturdays.”

The Seminoles seem to see that, too, and probably also are wary of taking any opponent lightly, especially on the road. Their lone loss was a 47-17 blowout at No. 8 Oklahoma when Sooners quarterback Landry Jones made it look easy, throwing for 321 first-half yards.

“They’re not a team like we’ve played before,” defensive end Markus White said of Virginia. “A lot of teams like to run the stretch outside. They’re going to run it down our nose.”

NCAA denies appeals by Tar Heels’ Burney, Williams Associated Press

The college notebook ...

CHAPEL HILL — The NCAA has denied an appeal to shorten suspensions for North Carolina cornerback Kendric Burney and safety Deunta Williams.

Burney was suspended six games and Williams four for receiving improper benefits connected to several trips, including to California to visit a former North

Carolina player. Burney also had trips to Atlanta and Las Vegas linked to former college player Chris Hawkins, whom the NCAA has said qualifies as an agent.

The appeal came Friday.

Spokesman Steve Kirschner also says an NCAA investigator returned to campus Wednesday and Thursday to participate in the school-led investigation into possible academic violations. Most of those cases are being handled by

the student judicial system.

• RALEIGH — An attorney representing NFL agent Gary Wichard says his client will meet with investigators from the North Carolina Secretary of State’s office as they review whether the state’s sports agent laws were broken.

Howard Silber says Wichard is scheduled to meet with investigators next week, though he wouldn’t specify exactly when. Marshall’s office launched its probe shortly

after the NCAA began investigating the football program at North Carolina.

SOUTH CAROLINA COLUMBIA, S.C. — The NCAA says South Carolina’s compliance director should not have approved football players living at a local hotel paying reduced rates.

While the NCAA has not assessed any penalties in the ongoing investigation, it says the university’s initial evaluation of the

arrangements at The Whitney Hotel was “flawed.”

South Carolina released more than 400 pages of documents Friday pertaining to NCAA’s probe of players living at the hotel through an open records request by The Associated Press and other media outlets.

The school says football players were being charged $450 for a twobedroom suite, a monthly rate compliance director Jennifer Stiles deemed permissible under rules.

North Rowan’s T.J. Allen lofts a pass downfield in the YVC win against East Montgomery on Friday that left the Cavaliers tied for first place.

Cavaliers 2-0 in YVC after beating East Montgomery

BY DAVID SHAW dshaw@salisburypost.com

SPENCER

— North R o w a n N. Rowan 34 sent a reE. Mont.

7 sounding message to anyone willing to listen Friday night.

The Cavaliers treated their homecoming crowd to a 34-7 win over visiting East Montgomery and gave the rest of the YVC something to worry about.

“This shows we’re not some pushover team,” senior Amani Bates said after North (2-4, 2-0) asserted itself like never before this season.

“We’re a family of brothers, and we’re playing that way.

It’s conference time, and we’re not laying down for anybody.”

If there were any doubts about North’s intentions,

there shouldn’t be now.

The Cavs’ defense forced seven turnovers, and a reignited offense sparked often enough to produce 265 yards. By night’s end North shared the conference lead with Albemarle.

“Two-and-0 is a long way from a season,” coach Tasker Fleming cautioned afterward. “We’ve still got a lot of work to do. I think our kids understand that, but we did a lot of good things tonight.”

North’s defense, led by defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, was tougher than Harvard Law. East Montgomery (4-2, 1-1) had a two-fold problem — first its offense folded, then its defense collapsed.

“Blocking,” East Montgomery coach Anthony Timmons said. “And execution.”

Timmons deliberately trimmed his post-game com-

“I don’t want anything to be misconstrued in the media,” he explained.

Fair enough. But there was no mistaking North and the 260-pound Hargrave, who scored a pair of first-quarter touchdowns just a week after his “Take 6” TD against South Stanly.

“You see teams week af-

ter week try to double-team him, try to run away from him,” Fleming said. “But he’s all over the place and keeps making plays. We’re lucky to have him.”

Hargrave’s first score came midway through the first period on an attempted bootleg by Matthew Reynolds.

MOUNT ULLA — West Iredell’s W. Rowan 34 touchdown W. Iredell 14 with less than five minutes remaining reduced West Rowan’s lead to six points, but unbeaten quarterback B.J. Sherrill provided the Falcons with breathing room in the blink of an eye.

Sherrill’s 50-yard touchdown run on the first play after West Rowan recovered an onsides kick, followed by Trey Mashore’s 66-yard i n t e r ception return for a score, helped the Falcons pull away for a 34-14 homecoming victory Friday night.

“They played us close, but I am so happy to see our football team respond the way they did because that’s the first time

MASHORE

they’ve been tested,” West Rowan coach Scott Young said.

“I think they passed that test with flying colors.”

West Rowan (7-0, 2-0 NPC) won its 22nd straight league game since a 2007 loss to the Warriors and its 37th consecutive game overall. The result improved Young’s record to 126-37, good for third place in county history behind Bill Ludwig and all-time victories leader Spencer W. Lancaster.

Running to victory South puts on a clinic against North Iredell

CONCORD — Someone seeing only A.L. Brown 56 the final C. Cabarrus 14 score may n e v e r know how ugly things were for A.L. Brown early in Friday night’s SPC game at Central Cabarrus.

That’s because the Wonders were so dominant later on.

After a sloppy first quarter that featured six fumbles, Brown regrouped in plenty of time to record the expected blowout win, scoring 49 unanswered points — including 42 in the second half — in a 56-14 victory.

After that, though, it was smooth sailing.

“I think they were embarrassed,” Massey said of the difference in his team after halftime. “I hope they

were embarrassed with the first half. I think they came out to play in the second half.”

Quarterback Martel Campbell completed only five passes in the game, but three of them went for touchdowns, including two

OLIN — North Iredell’s Matt Ramseur and South Rowan’s Mark S. Rowan 32 McDaniel and Clay Wilson N. Iredell 14 all put on a rushing clinic Friday night as South Rowan beat North Iredell 32-14.

The three accounted for 304 yards rushing and seven touchdowns in an exciting Homecoming game at North Iredell.

Leading the attack was McDaniel, South Rowan’s quarterback, who accounted for 137 yards of total offense, including 102 yards rushing and 35 yards passing. He also scored four times.

Wilson had 91 yards rushing and 9 yards receiving and also scored a touchdown.

Ramseur paced the North Iredell offense with 111 yards on the ground and two touchdowns.

South Rowan jumped out to an early 7-0 lead three minutes in on a 27-yard touchdown run from McDaniel on just its second play from scrimmage.

McDaniel added another score from 6 yards out to give South Rowan a 14-0 lead following the first quarter.

But Ramseur gave his team life in the second quarter on a 44-yard burst, cutting the lead to 14-7.

Coming out of the break, North tied the game on Ram- MCDANIEL seur’s second touchdown run of the night, a 27-yard score that knotted the game at 14-14.

But South Rowan put the game out of reach on the most exciting play of the game night that showcased long runs and dynamic running backs.

McDaniel rolled to his WILSON right on fourth-and-12 and was swarmed, but managed to pitch it to Wilson behind him before his knee hit the ground.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS New data Friday showed the economy is improving — with temporary help from the government. Consumer spending rose in August and incomes increased by the largest amount in eight months, the Commerce Department said.

Still, the income gain was propelled mostly by the government’s short-term extension of unemployment aid. A big jump in government building projects also lifted construction spending.

Chrysler Group LLC and Ford Motor Co. said sales rose slightly from August. They fell at General Motors Co. and Honda Motor Co. and were flat at Toyota Motor Corp. Car companies say a recovery is still happening, but it’s not as strong as they had hoped after a terrible 2009.

Stocks started off October on a positive note after mostly good news on the economy. Shares of big manufacturing companies like Boeing Co., General Electric Co. and 3M Co. rose after the Institute for Supply Management said its manufacturing index showed that factory activity was still expanding in September, although not quite as fast as analysts had

hoped.

A trading firm’s use of a computer sell order triggered the May 6 market plunge, which sent the Dow Jones industrial average careening nearly 1,000 points in less than a half-hour, federal regulators said. A report by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission determined that the so-called “flash crash” occurred when the trading firm executed a computerized selling program in an already stressed market. The firm’s trade, worth $4.1 billion, led to a chain of events that ended with market players swiftly pulling their money from the stock market. Only one trader that day fit the description in the report: Waddell & Reed of Overland Park, Kan. United and Continental closed the deal that will create the world’s biggest airline, although it will be months before it looks that way to travelers. By early 2012, travelers will see planes called United Airlines with Continental’s blue and gold colors and globe logo. United Continental Holdings Inc. is the parent company’s name.
